| 2173.8 | Can't backup registry | WOTVAX::HILTON | Save Water, drink beer | Mon Mar 24 1997 04:49 | 8 | 
|  |     Any idea how I backup system.dat and user.dat (my registry) under win95
    backup?
    
    The file selector doesn't show me the files!
    
    Cheers,

|  | There is a Microsoft program called Configuration Backup Utility that is 
what I use to backup the registry.
I'm not sure if it came with Windows 95 or not.
It saves the registry and compacts the file (the backup file is about 270K, 
while my system and user.dat files are more than 1.6 MB.)

    Greg,
    	  I thought that the FullSystemBackup set (supplied) caught all
    that stuff (registry hiddens etc etc)?
    
    Regards
    Alan T,

|  | Before I backup my Windows95 system I run a .BAT file which does
	ATTRIB -s -h -r C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.DAT
	ATTRIB -s -h -r C:\WINDOWS\USER.DAT
	PKZIP -EX C:\REG.ZIP C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.DAT
	PKZIP -EX C:\REG.ZIP C:\USER.DAT
	ATTRIB +s +h +r C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM.DAT
	ATTRIB +s +h -=+r C:\WINDOWS\USER.DAT

| 2173.12 | try ERU on W95 cdrom in a subdirectory | SUBSYS::MSOUCY | MentalmETALMike | Tue Mar 25 1997 12:11 | 16 |

    re: .8
    
    There is another utility that is on the W95 cdrom, in I think the
    utility/ies directory called ERU. It will create a backup of your
    important files to a floppy/ies. I am not sure if it gets made W95
    bootable or not as I haven't tried to boot from it (I should redo this
    myself since I just  recently went the pentium road.... and reconfig'd
    to scsi boot instead of EIDE). But also lfnbkup is also there (long
    filename backup) which will rename long filenames to 8.3 dos style by
    using switches, then you *supposedly* can do a DOS backup from backup or 
    tape. Then upon a restore run lfnbkup again to restore the long
    filenames. I don't know of anyone who has done this (seen it mentioned
    in here someplace though) successfully. But it's supposed to work.

|  | Put NT workstation on your PC - boot that up and use its own backup 
program. Its better than any W95 one I have tried
