Create full registry backup
In Windows® ME the user doesn't need to reboot in the DOS mode manually.
To restore the registry you can use two ways: automatic and manual.

Backup utility will ask you what backup file you want to restore.
Using the arrow keys, select the CAB (the CABs you will see are archived copies of the Registry) you want. The CAB files are listed by date with the most recent copy at the top. The CABs with the "RFA_backup" labels were created by Registry First Aid before the registry scans. You can restore either the latest Registry First Aid's CAB or the most recent CAB created at the system startup (it has the "Started" label).
Once you've selected the backup file to restore, the system will reboot and restore registry files.
Warning! Make sure that your backups are current. If you restore an old backup it could be fatal if you've made major changes to the operating system or hardware since the backups were created. For example, if you've installed Internet Explorer 6 and restore your registry from a backup predating that, expect that your computer won't boot properly.
