Registry backup and restore
PC Cleaner makes it very safe and easy to clean and optimize your registry. However, if you ever find that the removal of any registry items has caused certain software programs to stop running correctly or if your computer is taking an excessively long time to boot you can always revert your computer back to the last known good configuration using the backup and restore features.
From the registry menu click “Registry backup”.
Options on the backup menu include:
- Create system restore point – create a backup of your current system configuration which you can revert to should you experience any problems after removing registry items. This feature is available to anybody using Windows 7, Vista, or XP.
Once you create a system restore point you can access it by going to Windows Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore.
-
Backup registry – create a backup copy of your current registry which you can revert to should you experience any problems after removing registry items. Click Backup Registry and select the areas of your registry that you wish to include in the backup.
- Restore from previous backup – we recommend you use caution when restoring the registry as it can affect the operation of different software products on your computer. From the backup menu click “Restore from previous backup”, select the backup you wish to restore, and click Restore.
