Start ERUNT, confirm the Welcome message.
Type in the name of a restore folder where the backed up registry
files should be saved, or click "..." to browse your computer's drives
and select a folder. You can also simply leave the default, which is a
folder named ERDNT inside your Windows folder, the advantage being
that you have access to this folder from the Windows Recovery Console
in case Windows does not boot anymore.
Note that in the folder edit field, ERUNT by default appends a folder
named the current date to the restore folder, which allows you to keep
as many registry backups as you wish in the same restore folder,
separated into the different creation dates. This feature, as well as
the appearance of the date string, can be configured via the ERUNT.INI
file, described later in this document. If you want the registry backup
to be created directly in the folder you select, you can also simply
remove the date from the folder edit field before clicking "OK".
Next, select the backup options:
- System registry: The current system registry, usually consisting of
the files DEFAULT, SAM, SECURITY, SOFTWARE, and SYSTEM.
- Current user registy: The registry files for the currently logged-on
user, usually NTUSER.DAT and USRCLASS.DAT.
- Other open user registries: Sometimes Windows has a few other user
registries in memory. Examples for this are "generic" registries,
e.g. for user "EVERYONE", or registries of other users if you use
Fast Task Switching in Windows XP. Check this option to backup all
these additional user registries (if found) as well.
Click "OK" and wait until the backup process is complete. (Note that
depending on your system configuration this may take some time, and
that the first bar is NOT a progress bar, just an indicator that the
program is still running.) The ERDNT program for later restoration of
the registry is automatically copied to the restore folder.
(Technical information: ERUNT saves only registry files which are in
use by the system. It obtains information about these files from
registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\
hivelist. Registry hives not listed there, for example those
of other users of the computer, cannot be saved by ERUNT.)
