Description |
Registry Wizard is a powerful program that allows you to
backup your Windows registry. Windows has a registry or "database" that
stores all the information about your system such has hardware, software,
personal settings, etc. If your registry becomes corrupt you can lose
everything. Historically the only way to backup your registry was during
a tape backup of your system. However, most people don't have a tape drive
and therefore cannot make a backup of their registry. With Registry Wizard
you can make a backup to directory on your hard drive. In the event that
your registry becomes corrupt, Registry Wizard can restore your original
registry.

Use |
To backup your computer's registry enter the directory where you want
to store your backup and select "Backup." It is a good idea to make a backup
at least once every month. Registry Wizard allows you to make multiple
backups by entering a different path. In the event you need to restore your
registry, start Registry Wizard and select "Restore Registry." Enter the path
to the backup on your system and click "Restore." After you reboot your
machine your registry will be restored.
