I got really screwed up trying to update to SP2 and finally
had to reinstall windows in a new folder (WINDOWS1 instead of
the old WINDOWS).
So I still have all the old files in the old Windows folder
and in my old user's Docs and Settings folders.
I want to dig into the old registry to find and copy settings
from various applications; and hopefully to paste them into
the new registry.
Is there some way to do this? Do I need special software?
It seems that regedit only works on the current registry.
What are the files that comprise the registry? They used to
be C:\Windows\System.dat and user.dat but I guess that's not
the case with XP.
Thanks in advance for any help,
