I need an answer to a question on a crack I have. I understand steps 1 & 2... I just need to know what to do with Step 3.
1.Run setup file & install it.
2.Copy crack file into install folder (I understand this and where to put it)
3.Run .reg file
I'm just not sure on step 3. I see the folder and theres (1) .reg in this folder. What do I do with the File in the folder?
1. Wrong section. This has nothing to do with the board. Moved to File Sharing section.
2. Make sure you trust the source of the crack.
3. If so, double-click the .reg file. Click yes/OK.
Seriously, follow skiz's advice on MAKE SURE YOU TRUST THE SOURCE. I'd say, unless you got it off a well-moderated, private tracker, that has already been commented on by several known members- DO NOT USE THIS.
.reg stands for "registry". As in, IT IS GOING TO MAKE CHANGES TO YOUR REGISTRY.
Yes, some of these are just fine. However, you can entirely f-ck up your OS. And may not be able to recover the files on your computer. Is it worth it?
Thanks... I tried to find a way to put this in the right forum... Couldn't figure it out. Sorry and thanks for the answer.Quote:

That's why ERUNT is among the first programs I add to a new Windows install :happy: Make a backup, toy with your registry to death, then restore it with three clicks. Automatic backups (for when the messup wasn't deliberate) and offline restoration (if you really broke your computer) are also available. A most useful piece of software.Quote:

Another useful app is RegSnap which as the name implies make snapshot of registry that afterwards allow you roll back.
NB! RegSnap should be installed on bare system (i. e. next after Windows®).
