    Windows 7 restore

    I have done a restore install with XP Pro dozens of times but don't know the proceedure to do a restore install with Win 7 Enterprise, is it even an accepted procedure? I have lost some files from Windows and want to simply restore the missing or corrupted files, hopefully without losing everything else on the drive.

    Restore is the same for all versions of Win 7.

    Thanks, I did do a backup before I reinstalled though just in case.

    You are Welcome and that backup is good thinking. Had a reinstall blow up on me once. Lost a bunch of stuff.
