How to back-up Registry ??

[bonishah88]

Guys, I'm looking for a way to backup my registry only. Does anyone know of any ? Any software for that would also be helpful.

I'll recommend Erunt, (on same page NTREGOPT is also very good):

Thanks for the reply. Does it allow restore also or is it manual ??

I would second Erunt...but you can also use Windows built-in tools...either System Restore or Regedit.exe...I tend to use System Restore more often though...

Read this wonderful article here on PCWorld about this topic, it 'discusses' about all three methods...System Restore, Regedit, and even Erunt:
Back Up Your Registry

P.S. I''ve not used Erunt myself but I must say their other app NTREGOPT (NT Registry Optimizer) is excellent...I've used it before...

I use this Mz Registry Backup

Its very easy to use and to restore back-ups

I have tried the regedit method but it does not remove keys added later. still will give Erunt a try and also Mz. Thanks all.

Ccleaner has it's own back up i think...friend

[bonishah88]

yes but it works similar to manual mode, i think. I mean it cannot delete values added later.

Press Winkey + R and enter "regedit /E c:\RegistryBackup.reg" without that""of course


remember c:\ is the drive where the backup will be created,you can change the letter of drive

Thanks lunaticcranck but it is the same as manually exporting the keys. It is just a switch. Still Thanks anyway for taking time to help.
