Backing up your Registry and Restoring it!

Backing up your Registry and Restoring it!

Why backup your registry? Because you really can mess up your system
editing your registry. I generally tell novice people to stay away from
registry editing. Generally registry editing is for people with too
much time on their hands and this real desperate urge to mess with
their computer, mwhahaha, so lets gets started, umm, but first lets
make a backup of the registry:

-Close all programs running on your desktop


-Then go to Start


-Go to Run and type regedit and hit okay. This will open registry editor


-Go to File --->Export...This will open a box where you can save this backup registry file.


-Give it a file name and save it to a folder, hard drive, zip disk,
backup hard drive, anywhere that this registry will be safely stored.
Make sure the Export range is selected as ALL

-Click Save


-Then make sure to send me large quantities of money (this is an optional step).


Now that you have it backed up its very easy to restore, just do
everything you did but when you want to restore it, just go to
File--->Import--->Select the backup file and click okay...this
will restore you registry back to the default.
