Upgrading OS
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello TBTECH, I am running Win 98 and will be 'upgrading' to Win 2K Pro soon. I run a neat little batch file to back-up the registry, (got from someone on this list), and it works great. Last time I re-formatted all I needed to do was double click on it. Will the registry back-up work the same with Win 2K pro? What I mean is will the Win 98 back-up work for the Win 2K Pro OS? The Bat!

I think you should exercise extreme care. If the script backups only the application (other than M$ application) settings under HKCU and HKLM, you should be safe. But if that script backups also some Microsoft data I think that it would be safe to exclude that.

No registry mucking required, and all my templates, filters, etc. came over. Yup, all that worked for me when I had to reformat. Just reinstalled The Bat! from scratch, entered my code, and restored my TBK backup - presto, all my settings and mail back where they were. It asks you, when creating the backup, what you want to back up - - and by default, that includes the account properties and global options, so basically everything in the registry key (except possibly your registration code). It'll probably go smoother that way, anyway, as certain paths, like your My Documents, will change when you swap to 2K, and many of the registry keys - surprisingly many - won't be very interchangeable. I don't think the dictionaries in the spelling checker are saved either - importantly the user dictionary, but if you backed up the files, it'll be speller/UserDic.TLX in The Bat!'s program folder. Don't forget to back up your PGP keyrings too (carefully). It can be very inconvenient to lose those. - -- /sjx. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iQA/AwUBPXZT44rBVKGBkwKXEQK0+wCeKjjqzBCdtllFASpdNH73dpW1OkEAn1x9 hHMCjg37zEGXjlzzvOtXXPPG =7IQD -END PGP SIGNATURE- Current version is 1.61 | Using TBTECH information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
