I want to do a registry clean and want to back up registry before,

Any suggestions?
Thanks

Here's the way registry cleaners typically work.

1. Someone runs a registry cleaner.
2. System is rendered unusable.
3. Operator re-installs Windows.
4. Result: Clean, compacted registry.

(Expert users skip steps 1 and 2)


I'm convinced, Thanks for the input.
