Hi, I need your help. On my desktop PC, Windows 10, I deleted HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Volatile Enviroment. My PC will die on me if I restart without restoring the values.
Please, somebody, open regedit and export the key; I'd be extremely thankful!!

Does it matter if it's 32bit or 64bit? Which one of the either do you need?

Here you go...

(From my 64bit Windows 10 on my Virtualbox on Macbook Air)

Hope it helps you.

registry_export.reg is the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Volatile Environment

registry_export1.reg is the "1" under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Volatile Environment
(HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Volatile Environment\1)

I just noticed a tiny spelling error for "Environment" don't make that mistake

Good catch, stingraze. I too rarely make a reg backup when I'm tinkering.

But doesn't Win10 have some sort of restore option at boot? I remember other Windows versions giving the choice to restore just the registry. Did that start with Win98?

I thought that's what restore points are - archived registry files.

The thing is, the hard drive I have my restore points was disabled, and it would've been too much of a hassle restoring the entire system, when only a reg key was missing

You could extract the hive files from the shadow copy, temporarily mount one of them to your current registry and export the values from there (you will need to rebase the resulting .REG file though).

Yaa, I could have, but I was panicking and had to get some work done
