Nirsoft's RegHiveBackup

[silvanet]

I searched in the forums for both Nirsoft and RegHiveBackup but didn't see what I was trying to learn. I downloaded their RegHiveBackup zip file, extracted and ran the RegHiveBackup.exe file, which appears to be an installer, but it immediately pops up a dialog asking for a password. I tried my Windows username password, then found from a google search that the installer password for Nirsoft is nirsoft123. Well there's an exclamation point at the end of that line so I don't know if it's part of the password. I tried it both ways but I can't get any tried password to install it.

I read a Microsoft article where they sneakily removed the automatic Nirsoft registry backups. Maybe it's just a mechanism for them to wipe out your registry. They say that after Windows 10 version 1803 their "recommendation" is you use System Restore. I swear they just keep getting greedier and worse over there.

Does anyone know how to get past that password dialog?

This one works fine for me on my latest Win10.

Thanks, wow, how did I miss that?
