Down to the reg-edit? Really? I had heard of them of course, but I thought they were only for backing up your data, not every reg edit. I looked at the web site for both of them and neither talk about backing up reg edits, just your programs, contacts, etc.
I use an exchange server so all my data is auto-synced. The thing that takes so long is installing Diamond Tweak, TF3D Config, Advanced Cfg Tool, etc... then going through every option, then doing manual reg tweaks on top of that, then installing all my programs and configuring all my mail and IM accounts and such, then configuring the settings/options for all of my installed programs.
Are you really telling me that both of those backup solutions will save all of the configuration and manual reg-edits for Windows and all of my installed programs? ...and I can restore such a backup on top of a new system after installing PictureMail and then it will be exactly how it is now, but with PictureMail working?
Somehow it sounds too good to be true. Wouldn't restoring every registry setting from my current system probably prevent PictureMail from loading? I mean, I'm sure installing PictureMail makes changes to the registry, which would then be lost when restoring my old registry... right?
