Recovery of BI settings and registration from registry file

[Zanthexter]

Had a hard drive fail. I was able to recover the registry file and export the BI keys.

Importing them and then installing BI on a new system gets me an expired Demo though.

For lack of time, I've already bought a new BI registration key and rebuilt the system. Wouldn't mind recovering the old key for possible future use and the settings as well. Any suggestions?

And Yes, I will try to be better about exporting from within BI and saving a copy of that file.

Thanks, but I wasn't the one who bought it. And the person that did is believes in "inbox zero".

Oh well, life happens. Should have been better prepared.

Print it on a label, and stick it on the side of the BI machine.
