Registry Restoration and Backup
     Your system always keeps a backup copy of your registry configuration (including user account information, protocol bindings, software program settings, and user preferences). You can use the backup copy if your current registry encounters a problem. Each time you restart your computer, Registry Checker automatically scans your registry. If Registry Checker notices a problem, it automatically replaces the registry with the backup copy.

Notes:
  • You can also start Registry Checker by clicking Start, pointing toPrograms, pointing to Accessories pointing to System Tools, clicking System Information, and on the Tools menu, clicking Registry Checker.
  • If your registry contains an entry referencing a file that no longer exists (such as a .vxd file), it will not be fixed by Registry Checker.
