ALSO
After shutting the computer down last night and booting up this morning, A window came up with this warning
Unable to create file:
C:\Windows\ERDNT\AutoBackup\05-03-2014\ERDNT.INF
Registry backup will continue but no restore information for the ERDNT program will be saved
This means that later restoration of registry can only be done manually, by using another OS to copy back the files
Then further windows opened saying
Error saving file
C:\Windows\ERDNT\AutoBackup\05-03-2014\Security
continue to next file
[RegCreateKeyEX:5 Access is denied
