How to read one key from the registry backup

[Enrico Di Cesare]

Does anyone know how to read a key from the registry backup in
\winnt\repair\regbak? I just have to restore one single key, not the whole
registry...

Thanks,

Run regedt32, then from the Local Machine Hive, choose Registry|Load Hive.
Then navigate to the location of the hive you want to edit/read. Give it
some tempname (doesn't matter what). Then when your done, move the cursor
back to tempname, then Registry|Unload Hive, Registry|Exit
