How do I restore my registry

[Daffy127]

Sandra,
Thank you for your information in this thread. About 2 weeks ago, something apparently corrupted the registry on my computer (XP Pro). I tried to do numerous restores and nothing worked. It was as if everything had reverted back to day one, like I had just installed all programs. After finding this thread and following your instructions, everything was back to working normally.
I now have two questions. The two backup files you mentioned on my computer have a date of 8-7-2008. What stored these files there and is there a way to update them to the latest registery entries?
Again thank you for saving my computer.

Chuck

Hello,

Those backup was probably made when you installed Spybot on your pc.
The wizard gives you a function to make a backup.
If you want to make a new one now you can also do that.
Please run Spybot - Search & Destroy and switch to the Advanced mode via the menu item Mode.
Now select 'Settings' - 'Settings' from the navigation bar on the left.
Now choose 'Wizard' from the navigation bar above.
If you want you can make a backup now.

Best regards
Sandra
