Hello everyone -- In Windows XP there was an easy Registry backup facility but cannot find a VISTA Registry backup pgm. available. Is there an easy way to backup the VISTA registry? Would like to perform a backup before I make changes to my system. Thank You.

Just click the Start button, and in the white box type "regedit". Then click File and Export. You can then save the registry anywhere you want on your hard drive, or to an external device.

Be aware that if you need to import that registry backup again it will simply "merge" the data with whatever is already there (so it could leave some trouble around).
