Backup of Windows XP Implicit Favorites

        In addition to the IE favorites in WinXP, there are two more special favorites, which are the favorites in the Registry Editor and the Favorites in the Help and Support Center. This article describes how to back up these two hidden favorites. 1. Back up the registry favorites If we don't want to re-add the favorites item every time we install the system, we need to back up the favorites in the registry in time. Unlike the IE favorites, the favorites in the registry are not stored in a folder, but are stored directly in the registry, so the backup of the registry is to export the registry branch. Run Regedit, and then expand "HKEY_CURRENT_U SER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Applets\\Regedit\\Favorites" in the Registry Editor. We can see that the items in the registry favorites are displayed in the right pane. The name of the key value is the name of the item in the collection, and the key value is the corresponding registry path. Right-click the "Favorites" registry item in the directory tree on the left, select "Export" from the shortcut menu, specify the path and name of the saved REG file, click the "Save" button to be in the favorites. The project is backed up. When you need to restore these items, just double-click the previously saved REG file and import it into the registry to complete the restore. 2. Backup Help Center Favorites The contents of the WinXP Help and Support Center favorites are stored in the "C:\\Documents and Settings\\<User Name>\\Local Settings\\ApplicationData\\Microsoft\\HelpCtr" directory. "Favorites.stream" "In the file. When we need to back up, just copy this file, and when you need to restore, replace the backup file with the file with the same name in the above directory.
