It is not necessary - but is anything gained for turning it off? Do you want
to free space on this partition?

System Restore monitors specific types of files -> .exe, .vxd, .dll, .com,
and .sys extensions.

So the only risk is that if some of these type of files were modified
accidentally or maliciously a system restore may recover them if it was
turned on.
