- chris_wot 7y agoGetting the last known good state of the registry can often tell you what install caused issues. Reinstalling is fine, but IMO should be a last option in many cases. Especially if you are trying to quickly recover from an incident - reinstalls take time!
- cm2187 7y agoActually if you maintain a batch file with all your settings plus use chocolatey, it can be pretty quick (under 40 minutes to reinstall everything from scatch in my case).
