System Restore is the built in method of restoring the registry.

Or use ERUNT

Thanks. You answered one question, but left unanswered another.

1. How can I backup and restore the registry? You gave a good answer: ERUNT.
Thanks.

2. How can I backup the registry so that I can view the previous values of
various keys so that I can restore the keys using regedit? System Restore
restores the entire system, including data files. Overkill.

The problem arose when I noticed garbage in two keys. One key I deleted. The
other key, Path, I restored based upon info that I gathered what the value
should be. I would like the backup to be some type of file that Notepad or
something else can read to give me the values of individual keys.
