There is only one registry key used: the onder HKCU. You can safely
delte the other one, which is a legacy from odler versions.

Mine does:
call januk.bat
This is a batch file that was created by Januk Aggarwal and looks like
this (copy and save as file januk.bat):
--- start januk.bat ---
@echo off
rem Written by Januk Aggarwal
cls
echo Welcome to your The Bat! Registry Backup program.
echo
echo _______________________________________________
echo * *
echo * 1. Back up my registry NOW!! *
echo * 2. Don't you dare! Get me outta here! *
echo * *
echo *_______________________________________________*
echo.
choice /c:12
if errorlevel 2 goto end
if errorlevel 1 goto begin
:begin
echo.
echo Good choice, I'm just checking for previous backup attempts.
echo.
echo.
if not exist TBbckup2.reg goto continue
echo Your previous backup is being stored in TBbckup2.reg
echo.
if exist TBbckup1.reg del TBbckup2.reg
:continue
if exist TBbckup1.reg rename TBbckup1.reg TBbckup2.reg
start /w regedit /e TBbckup1.reg "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The Bat!"
echo.
if not exist TBbckup1.reg echo Error! Something went wrong. Backup not
echo successful.
if exist TBbckup1.reg echo Success! Your registry entries for The Bat! are
echo backed up!
echo.
:end
echo.
echo Thank you for using this backup utility.
echo.
exit
--- end januk.bat ----

Yes. Kari will explain this further. ;-)
NA> What advantages are there to your type of backup, compared to Tools/Backup?
It does everything. I have never used the Tool/Backup feature but you
have choices there, like if you don't want to backup/resotrer
everything.
