To restore my registry do I open the erunt or erdnt folder?

Grampy Pete,

This is a Windows XP newsgroup. ERunt - although fine at what it does - is
not a part of Windows XP nor a Microsoft product.

Restoring the registry with ERDNT
---------------------------------

Situation: Windows is running normally.

To restore a previous registry backup, open Windows Explorer, navigate
to the folder where you saved the backup to, and double-click the
ERDNT.EXE file to start the restoration program. (Each restore folder
has its own copy of ERDNT.EXE in it.) Select which registry components
to restore, then click "OK" to start restoration. When the process is
complete, click "OK" to restart the computer and activate the restored
registry.

Note: If you experience any problems restoring the registry, please
read "ERDNT technical information" later in this document to learn
what ERDNT is actually doing during the process, or simply read on
through the following emergency scenarios for other ways of restoring
the registry.

ERDNT.

See the ERUNT documentation. But in a nutshell, you use Windows Explorer
to navigate to the location of the ERUNT backups, and double click on the
appropriate ERDNT.EXE file.

But the registry is a part of Windows XP. Yes?

Yes.

What would be your point?

Many modern applications written to run on Windows XP (or later) systems
utilize the system registry, the hard disk drive Windows is installed upon
and even some DLL files included with the Windows system. This does not
mean that you can ask all of your questions about said third party products
in a single place (a place for help with Windows XP - specifically the Help
and Support feature in Windows XP in this case) and be able to expect an
answer like one you would get if you asked those who actually created said
product and/or just went to that manufacturer's web page.

If you buy a programmable thermostat for your home A/C and Heating system
and install it yourself and it will not keep the settings you put in it - do
you call your realtor, the A/C & Heating repairman or do you get the support
you need from the manufacturer of the programmable thermostat with the
problem?

If you buy a new car stereo/CD player and install it in your vehicle and it
decides to keep one of your CDs, do you call your auto dealer, the car
manufacturer or do you refer to the support options from the manufacturer of
the car stereo/CD player in question?

Grampy Pete asked a very specific question about a very specific product
(one that this newsgroup does not support.) I pointed out - correctly -
that the help Grampy Pete needed was not best found in a newsgroup
concerning Windows XP - but in a location centering around the product
Grampy Pete was asking specifically about. I went further to point Grampy
Pete to the place where I believe Grampy Pete would receive/locate the
information (and more) on the product Grampy Pete was asking about (and its
functionality.) I went further and pointed Grampy Pete to the specific
document to review to find said answer to said specific question about said
specific product. I went further and quoted the part of the document that
centered around the specific question that Grampy Pete was asking about said
specific product.

Please, do explain what your point is about Grampy Pete's question and my
answer. I am curious at this point.

 

[Grampy Pete]

I will post issues pertinent to this forum as you ponted out and to which I
agree.
Thank you to others for their support
