....et al"., I am not quite sure if this is the best way to update/follow up
on the subject or restoring the registry of choice. At any rate, this is the
current status.
If you recall, I had mentioned that I could not get the system to restore a
registry backup that I had saved the day before the pop up problem showed
up.
Because of the many issues present in my machine and fearful of taking the
steps that you well outlined to get the ‘job’ done by a different route, I
had more or less decided to let things be and just deal with the pop up
nuisance.
Later on, the reality that only five of the latest backup files of the
Registry would show up on the primary list of the dialog box, when issuing
the command ‘scanreg /restore’ at the Dos Prompt, made me attempt at deleting
one or two files, irrelevant to me, and inserting the ‘saved file’ in the
mix. I, then, re-tried to restore that copy and it worked. The ‘bothersome
pop up’ has now gone.
The line ‘shell=explorer.exe longer.exe’ is still present
in the Boot Tab of the System.ini File, but it is unchecked.
Should I assume that only the latest five backups shown on the list can be
restored and not any other that might be available and shown by expanding the
dialog box with the down-arrow key?
Thank you for time and suggestions!
