If you've ever edited the file with Sysedit there should be backups - look for system.*

Some software installs will also backup critical files

Give me ambiguity or give me something else

.....for setup read install, yes a
re-install of Windows is required, M$ call
it SETUP LOL.

If you have no disks you need to go out and
buy. M$ products are not FREWARE, Warez,
ABANDONWARE etcetc.
