My sister spends a ton of time customizing the colour scheme on her PC, so much so that she always asks me to save her settings before I tinker around and fix her PC. This is on the odd chance that I can't fix whatever is wrong, and need to format and reinstall. After all, who want to redo everything?
Backing up those settings is quite easy, first we'll want to load up regedit (Start -> Run then type regedit and press the Ok button) and follow this path HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Control Panel -> Custom Colors and back up that branch. If you have custom patterns on the PC as well go to the HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Control Panel -> Patterns and back up that branch as well.
