Hey there Brian, I haven't seen a you-tube video yet of how to fix a computers registry (I.E. Windows xp, vista, 7).  basically what I am asking is there any boot-able environment with a simple GUI interface to do the following things:  import registry files, fix corrupted registry files.

I understand that you have made a video called (How to Backup and Restore Windows 7 Registry by Britec) but what I am looking for is a faster method, and also a method which can fix a registry that is NOT backed up.

Now I can assume that re-installing windows over the same partition might be a last resort... or is this the only practical option given that there is no .reg backup files?

I have read up on a solution from Microsoft on how to repair the registry manually through the repair disc option... but it seems like a rather painful process that would require accuracy and a lot of typing (this is why I am asking if there is a graphical user interface based software solution to fixing a non-bootable Operating system because of registry problems.)


Thank you for your' time!

hehe, you know what is funny about that... I saw this youtube Video after I posted my initial question.

Now I suppose the only question regarding this procedure is that... if you actually restore a clients registry by using these means, how will this effect their computer if say.... their most recent system restore hasn't been done for a long time... lets say over 6 months to a year... with that said would this make the process any better really given the fact that during the period of time new applications and installations would've happened.  so... would this even be an ideal fix if the most recent restore point is more than a few months old?

Wouldn't this situation cause massive corruptions to the registry by "fixing" it in this manner?  or upon reboot would a registry fixer/cleaner effectively fix these issues or??

I can assume that most client computers will have fairly recently created system restore files to fix the issue, but there is still that chance...

Thank you for your time!

and and btw

Best think to do is have a look at how many snapshots there are and just go back 1 or 2 and you should be fine, that way there wont be much change to the computer
