| 14530 | 2001-06-24 05:38:00 | A pretty simple question: how do I back up my registry, and how hard is it to get it 'back' if it becomes damaged? Thanks Neil |

A third method is to make copies of system.dat and user.dat, these are located in the windows directory. Restoring these files will return the registry to its original state. |
