Clean install of Windows 7, save SW registration?

Clean install of Windows 7, save SW registration?

(OP)
I may be forced to do a clean install of Windows7. Is there an option to save all my registration data / serial #'s etc before I start (SW2014 x64)?
Thank you for your time

RE: Clean install of Windows 7, save SW registration?

For Solidworks Yes, Tools\ Save/Restore Settings. This will save all your settings, pointers, menus, keyboard and mouse short cuts.

For your windows registry, yes. get a command prompt and type "regedit" Then you can save the registry as a text file.
