You know there are some programs that backup the registry...I use JV19 Power Tools... ----- Original Message ----- From: DH (Rick) Holmes To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, April 04, 2004 4:55 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Fw: The Registry. Dangerous area to get into, Lionel. You really need to know what you are doing as it does not take much to cause big problems. Requests to back up usually only come when you are going to modify the registry so that you can recover from an error. At least that's my understanding. I can't remember the details for WinMe, but access to the registry is via Start/Run, type *regedit* without the asterisks, the 'Enter' The file menu there will probably offer you a copy function.
