My Own Backup
3 Answers
I have a couple of questions regarding this program:
1) Does it backup the registry when doing a backup?
2) If so does it do it everytime? only when backing up the entire system? or can you select when to do it?
3) If not does anybody know of a program that does backup including the registry? Freeware would be nice as the Australian Dollar is pretty worthless these days.
I am using Windows ME OEM edition and want to backup to a CD burner and use CD-R/Ws. I have DirectCD and Easy CD Creator.( Microsoft, those clever people, didn't include backup on the installation disk as apparantly it's unnecessary).

The questions are regarding this program, however I am open to suggestions as to other backup programs
Try 'Advanced Backup' (search Google) I have used it for 6 months with only a nagscreen to cancel each time. It even backs up my user.dat which I believe is the registry file. Anyway you could always export a copy of the registry using regedit.exe. Make a new folder, call it 'Reg' or something then you can easily backup that folder. Hope this helps.
