Boot recovery- best backups - roberthansjorg - 06-01-2022

Hi all,

OK- so I've made my recovery/rescue disk.
I've even made my system image and saved it to a couple of
external HDD's.
I even backup my registry file and save it externally.
OK then.
But I'm lazy - and if my PC fails to boot because some file is missing or corrupt
what is the easiest way to repair the files needed to get the OS back?

I'm happy to boot to cmd.exe and go from there.
What should I make a copy of using the command line which I would subsequently
access to reinstate the OS?
What's the most important stuff to keep safe and copy over when you have to repair
your boot up using the command line?

Any advice appreciated.

regards

Robert
