Restore Windows Registry from an earlier backup
![]()
In one of my other article I’ve explained to you how to backup Windows Registry. It wouldn’t be much use if you don’t know how to restore your Windows Registry from an earlier backup. Follow these steps to restore Windows Registry from an earlier backup.
Step-1:

Click the “Start” button and type-in “run” on the Search box and press the Enter key.
If you are using Windows XP then click on the “Start” button and then click on the “Run…” menu option.
Step-2:

On the “Run” dialog type-in “regedit” and press the Enter key.
Step-3:

Windows will open up the Registry Editor. Click on the “File” menu and then click on the “Import…” submenu.
Step-4:

Windows will display an “Import Registry File” dialog allowing you to choose the backup file that you’ve backed up earlier. Choose the file that you want the Registry to be restored to and then hit the “Open” button.
Windows will now restore the Registry to the state it was when you backed up the file.
