How can I increase the frequency of "shadow copies" on Windows - Microsoft Community

(i believe correct topic)

want increase how of windows 10 creates "shadow copies" (i not sure if correct term).
talking when right click file or folder , has "previous versions" tab. usually, whatever reason, no previous version show on tab program shadow explorer (a program used when still had vista) finds previous versions.

searched bit , found called "file history" looks works backup , can enable store "copies" external drive. not want that. don't want backup.

"system" found "system protection" (which sound more backup) have 2 options there:
1. adjust disk space usage, understand allows me access version further in past
2. , manually create restore point @ moment.

1. not care go in past, want restore folder 10 hours ago, usage purposes of going further in past seems unnecessary me.
2. more want. manually created restore point, not see or access right clicking file or folder , going previous versions tab, access shadow explorer.

want 2. automatically. found 2 articles howtogeek.com:
*http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/change-how-often-system-restore-creates-restore-points-in-windows-vista/
*http://www.howtogeek.com/56891/use-windows-7s-previous-versions-to-go-back-in-time-and-save-your-files/

same , steps similar windows 10, far have not seen restore points created either of 2 ways.

suggestions ?
