    command prompt will not open in safe mode with command prompt

    Would I just follow the same steps within safe mode after hooking up to the other system?

    How to backup and restore registry using only win10 iso command prompt

    In a link it suggested several registry troubleshooting steps for a Windows with black screen.

    For Windows 10 1909 how do you backup and restore one registry change using a windows 10 iso command prompt?

    If more than one registry entry is modified how do you backup and restore a second change?

    In addition to modifying one or two commands how do you backup and restore the whole registry when the only access is via a windows 10 iso command prompt?

  4. How do I backup an APPDATA folder through Command prompt?

    File History Backup and Appdata folders

    No, you should not include the AppData folder in your backups. There is far too much stuff in there that does not need backing up. Here are two options for you to consider:

    • Move the Outlook folder into your Documents folder, then tell Outlook where to find it. This is a little tricky.
    • Move the Outlook folder into your Documents folder, then create a symbolic link in order to make Outlook believe that the folder is still where it used to be.
    If you prefer the first option then its probably easiest to delete your current account, then recreate it, this time with reference to the moved Outlook folder. The experts in an
    Outlook forum could help you with this.

    I can assist you with the second option.
