Backup Registry Hives
Hi Everyone,
I have created batch script for backing up registry hives this batch script will create two folders at root of C: partition and stores copies of registry hives. The folder named Registry_Backups will contain newly created registry hives and previously created copies of registry hives, these previous backups will have OLD extension. The C:\Registry_Backups\RegOld folder contains previously created registry hive files with OLD extension. This batch script can be schedule to make backup copies of the registry hive files at any given time, i have setup a schedule to make sure my registry hives are backup at logon time.
Execute the batch script with administrative privileges.
Please copy/paste batch scripts codes to Notepad and save it as RegBackup.bat.
