RegRest Syntax


One Stepregrest [newfile savefile] [hivetype hivename]

Where:

newfile
specifies the backup source file name. RegRest will rename this file and use it to replace the old hivename file.
savefile
specifies the file name for saving the old hivename that is being replaced. The old hive file will be renamed and moved to this location.
hivetype
must be either machine or users or it will fail.
hivename
name of an immediate subtree of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or HKEY_LOCAL_USERS. Will fail if hivename isn't a hive root.

after using RegRest, examine the output to make sure that the restoration did what you wanted. Changes take effect only after the system is restarted.
