OK folks here’s the basics to backing up your registry.

Press the Windows Key + R at the same time on your keyboard until you get the run window.

Highlight “Computer” on the top and right click. In the menu click on “Export” and a new window is going to appear asking you where you want to save the file. Click on the File name and give it a name and hit Save.
