nunyo beezwacks Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 Is there a way to access the registry from another OS on the same computer? I installed W2K3 Server on C: have W2K Server on D: I want to access the registry from W2K while in W2K3. I am lazy, I don't want to boot up old one, copy(export ) reg keys, boot up new one install reg keys. My goal is to not have to reinstall all the programs. :sleep: Am I dreaming? :sleep: Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OPaul Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 Why wouldn't it be feasible to do this? Open the SYSTEM, SOFTWARE, etc.. registry files so keys can be extracted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
