Notes:

·         Before making any changes to the Windows Registry, it is important to create a backup of the registry to avoid any potential data loss or system issues.


·         When restoring the Windows Registry, make sure you are restoring a backup that was created on the same system, as restoring a backup from a different system can cause compatibility issues.


·         It is also recommended to create a System Restore Point before making any changes to the Windows Registry, as this can help you to restore the system to a previous state in case of any issues.
