Most likely you just "drag and dropped" the link to System Restore in the System Tools menu list to some other place. Or you may have deleted it.

Search through all of the Start menu branches and see if you can find it. Then left click on it and "drag and drop" it to the correct System Tools branch. Or you can left click on it and Copy/Paste a new copy back into the System Tools list.

If you can not find it, then create a new one.

Start - Settings - Taskbar and Start Menu - Advanced tab - Advanced button, expand the Programs branch and select the Accessories item, then double click the System Tools icon. This will open a "folder" of the System Tools links. If the System Restore link is not there, right click the page and select "New" and then "Shortcut". This will allow you to create a new shortcut to System Restore.

Now use Browse button to navigate to the
C:\Windows\SYSTEM\RESTORE
folder and select the RSTRUI.EXE program. You can go back into the new entry and RENAME it to System Restore and then select an Icon for it. When you exit out, System Restore should be in the System Tools list again.
