My other system just gave me this error saying there was an error in my registry and made me restart and it deleted my registry giving me a whole new one. So i was like ok no problem ill just restore it to an older one. So i restart to a command promt and do a scanreg /restore and try to restore it to a previous one but somthing else happend and it restored it to annother new one. So now i am stuck with 5 backups of my registry that all were made in the past 15 mins so i have no GOOD registry to restore to. Is there anyway i can get an older one back or am i fu(ked? Any input would be appreciated .

Thanks
 
You may want the following for future reference.



<< Another good thing about this process is that you can tell windows to make more than just the five default copies of the registry. In fact you can tell windows to make up to 99 copies of the registry. You can do this by editing the "MaxBackupCopies=##" line in the scanreg.ini file. Scanreg.ini can be found in the c:\windows directory. Change the five to whatever number you want from 0-99. Just remember that each copy of the registry is taking up space on your hard drive. The backup registry files are compressed. Example, a test machine that used 3,393KB for the registry files created a backup that was about 780KB. >>
