    Question How to Copy My Registry Files in XP

    Is there a way to copy my Registry Files that reside in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Config folder: Software, Hardware, SAM, Security, System and the NTUser.dat file located in the user's folder? I know there is a RegSaveKey(...) function but find this function is too slow to backup and entire registry file. Ideally i would like to copy these files however since they are "locked" by windows by default it is difficult for me to do that.

    So in essense is there a way to "copy" a locked file?
