Registry is a centralised database where Windows stores information about how it is configured. It contains information and settings for all the hardware, operating system software, most non-operating system software, users, preferences of the PC, etc.

If your Registry gets damaged your system may be rendered unusable. Even minor Registry errors can cause programs to crash or behave erratically. So I will tell you How can you backup and restore your Registry easily.

Follow the steps below:

 

Back up the Windows registry

1.  Click Start  > Run (Winkey+R) and type regedit , and then click OK
