Is there a common program besides CCleaner that deletes System Restore points?

[conceptualclarity]

I know you can reset the space Windows allots to System Restore, but as I'm new to doing this, I would prefer to have greater flexibility to be selective.

I was disappointed that my application QRM Plus Manager says it has created new "Cancelled Operation" restore points for the points I used it to delete. What a program!

So I have CCleaner, but its help file at http://www.piriform.com/docs/ccleane...restore-points says "Note: CCleaner removes references to the System Restore points, but may not actually remove all files related to each point."

Therefore I am interested in alternatives for this task. I have many programs, and just like I had CCleaner for a long time without noticing it had a System Restore module, maybe something familiar has a capacity I don't know about.

Have you tried using Windows Disk Cleanup?
Remember to Run as Admin for more clean-up options. Located in the system32 folder "C:\Windows\System32\cleanmgr.exe", it's described as a Disk Space Cleanup Manager for Windows.
