Any Utility to Backup Registry?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Windows NT Resource Toolkit had a fantastic utility named regback.exe that

could be used to make perfect replicas of the registry keys, in case you

wanted to save backups without backing up the entire system state. I've

used those registry backups for many recoveries and they came in very handy.

 

Does Microsoft have a newer utility to replace regback.exe? Will

regback.exe still work on Windows 2003 and Windows 2008?

Have you tried the Export under the file menu in Regedit? Or do you need

something more than that?

regback.exe will still work. I use it all the time.

We need automation for doing those registry backups regularly.
