Ziggy471’s Backup Test App v0.3

There is a known error in this version, if one of the registry keys being exported does not exist, the program will die.  I mistakenly try to close a non-existent registry key, thanks for finding the error dmoney.  I have it already fixed, but since I’m in the process of finishing the restore part, I won’t be releasing it just yet.

NOTE: Please double check the reg file, I had to write my own routines to do the export, since .Net Compact Framework does not have registry export capabilities.   I also didn’t want to have to use an external app like XDA_UC and Sahimi do.

This is a re-write of version 0.2.  This version exports separate XML files for the following:

• Email account settings (email.xml)
• Exchange account settings (sync.xml)
• Communication Planner settings (i.e. Connection timeouts, HKLMCommConnMgrPlannerSettings) (conplanner.xml)
• VPN Settings (vpn.xml)
• Wi-Fi Settings (wifi.xml)

It also exports the following registry entries to owner.reg:

• Basic Owner information to include:
  • The ‘Me’ Contact card
  • Facebook account information
  • Default Ringtone
  • Bluetooth Pairings
  • Manila Tabs with order
  • Home tab quick links

This version also adds a configuration file, ZBRConfig.xml, located in the “Windows” directory.  All export files are saved to the “Temp” directory.  Again, this is a work in progress.

If there are any reg settings or files that you can think of to add, please visit the forum and chime in.

Download Removed, newer version posted.
