dos command for previous runnable version of registry editer
What is the problem? Is there an error message? Can you boot to Safe
Mode? (Hold F5 or CTRL as you boot.) Here is what you request, with caveat... Boot to DOS (hold Ctrl as you boot for the Startup Menu, & select "Command Prompt Only"), and Enter SCANREG /Restore It will offer five, one for each of the last five separate days you booted successfully. Start with the one of the day the problem began, as these backups of the entire Registry (& System.ini & Win.ini) are done at boot, not at shut down. CAVEAT: A /Restore restores settings only. If there was a file change (other than to System.ini & Win.ini), those cannot be undone this way. That could be a problem, especially if there was a hardware change or large un/in-stall since the backup was made. -- Thanks or Good Luck, There may be humor in this post, and, Naturally, you will not sue, should things get worse after this, PCR "mrbigbry" wrote in message news | i need to know correct DOS syntax for restoring my previous registry editer so i can start my other computer, thank you |
