Registry Backup Beta
Shane:
The next version will have a restore batch file just like erunt does to run from the recovery console :-)
This will be 1 of the 3 ways I will show people how they can restore the reg in different situations.

Ok new version is just about done.
Some key points that make it better than erunt :-)
When you have to restore from the recovery console erunt makes a batch file that you run that has some simple copy commands. My reg backup now does this as well so you can restore just like erunt.
But on that I made an improvement. When restoring from the recovery console erunt only restores the system registry and none of the profiles. Mine replaces everything. :-)
2nd improvement. In the Vista and Windows 7 repair options it maps the Windows drive as D: instead of C:. Because of this the restore from erunt will fail. I have made the batch file for these version detect what drive letter Windows is on and restore it properly. So my version support the repair options of the new versions of Windows.
Of course the program still has the restore option built into the program that you would run normally and even in safe mode. Again this can both backup and restore all profiles not just the loaded ones like erunt.
Lastly is the way the backups are stored. If needed if a recovery console or repair options are not available you will be able to do a extremely easy copy and paste from any other environment. Such as loading the drive in another system or loading another OS such as the ones that run off cds.
So my new program has the same 3 made restore options as erunt, but Improved them to be easier and work better with the new versions of windows.
And when it is out of beta I will have both guides and video showing how to do each one.

These are the logs from a good scheduled run at boot time. The vss* files in C:\Windows\temp were all dated today when the computer was booted.
Shane:
Great! it is working.
Now lets see if it stays that way LOL
0.9.7 is out
And thanks again for working with me :artist:

BINGO!!!!! I deleted the vss* files in C:\Windows\temp and the manual backup worked correctly, so it looks like you are right and they are not being over written for some reason and are probably the ones created when by the scheduled backup at boot time.
Hmmm, just ran it again 3 minutes later and it ran okay again. Seems to only not work after the scheduled backup has occurred, which I think it setup to run under SYSTEM, not my login account.
I'll reboot in a little while then try the manual backup without deleting the vss* files in C:\Windows and see what happens.
