msSkewPerDay entry deleted from registry

[Guest maglinger]

The entry at

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters\msSkewPerDay

entry was inadvertantly deleted from the registry. Is there a way, short of

restoring the registry, where this entry can be regenerated with the proper

value?

You could restore the registry to an alternative location, then open

this branch and check/copy the data across.

 

Alternatively, if your OS has a System Restore function then you

could use this facility instead.

 

When hacking the registry, one should never delete keys or values.

Renaming keys is a far safer approach.
