I was doing good until the regback step .. then the message appeared
The system cannot find the file specified
0 files copied
SAme thing
Thanks a ton.
It worked for my windows 8 laptop.
With no IT support close to you, while working from home, this was really great getting the issue fixed.
config\RegBack>copy *.* ..
"the system cannot find the specified file"
What do i do now?
Did u find any solution?
Guys, to those of you who had issues with the 0 file(s) found error: you can't restore your registry this way anymore, Windows does not support it nowadays. And thanks for the video, man, we would have got away with it too if it wasn't for those dastardly MickeySoft kids...
Did u ever find a way to fix it?
@@hypern480p2 reset it with a usb or dvd
Yeah copy *.* .. isn't working at all, it says 0 file(s) copied
So I get as far as the 11 files being copied into backup, but when I try to copy to regback it says “the system cannot find the file specified. 0 file(s) copied.”

Our hero! Saved us a hell of a lot of work. Couldn't get this computer fixed regardless of how many forums we read through. This was freakin' brilliant! Well done and hope to see more from you in the future.
In the last commande in regback *.* .. Can't find files , 0 files copied. What is the problem?

hello after the cd d:\windows\system32\config it says the system cannot find the path specified. What seems to be the problem?
I followed your instructions and within 5 minutes my issue is resolved. I had spent at least 8 hours between yeserday and today fixing it. Thanks a lot!
Normally watching these kinds of videos doesn't create a solution for me, but this one actually did. I'm incredibly impressed and thank you so much!
I found that the command line "copy (star).(star) .." does not find a file however the command line "copy .." will result in the files being copied.
Did you fix it?
@@strawberrymilkshake112 no. none of the fixes I have found online has resulted in a correction of the error in my computer
Same here. Thanks for the "copy .." it's been such a long time I used command prompt
"copy .."
Bro genius tnx a lot
Thanks a million! Wish you were closer so I could buy you a beer or coffee. Much blessings 🙏🏾
I never comment on videos, but I'm taking the time to comment on yours because it actually helped me get this problem fixed. I am so grateful to you... I had not backed up my files, so I probably would have lost them all if it wasn't for you. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm backing up my files as I type this, lol, just in case something like this happens again.
One of most valuable & informative tutorials on this subject matter I've ever seen. A definite keeper. THANK YOU!
You're welcome and glad I can help.
@@Britec09I get error the system cannot find file specified
I am confused by what I can see on the screen as you talk through the instructions. 1) when you are in the config folder the contents are visible on the screen and there is no regback folder for you to move to, but you execute a 'cd regback' command and mover there. I can't see how this was possible. 2) I checked two of my PCs and the laptop that wouldn't boot and none of them had no files in regback, so I couldn't use this fix. What created the the recovery files in the regback folder on your machine?
Thank you so much. Like many others here, you have no idea how much you have done for me. I really appreciate it. This is one of the most important videos I have ever seen. Thank you.
I’ve had so many issues recently with my laptop. Really needed it tonight to finish up some work and got this blue screen on startup. Thank you SO much for this wonderful video. Restarted and she started up no problems! Plus I felt like a real computer genius typing in all the codes thanks to you!

When in the regback directory and I type copy *.* .. It says "the system cannot find the file specified. 0 file(s) copied."
Hi
At the step while copying files to the backup folder, i am getting an error which reads "Data error (cyclic redundancy check)" following which i am not able to copy in the regback folder as well. Could you please help on this.
You are a genius!!!! With this tutorial, I was able to bring my PC back to life even when the manufacturer of that machine (Asus) declined doing so. Thank you very much 🙏🙏🙏
When I coppied the files into the back up there was an extra one "userdiff" what's that mean?
It worked until i got to regback>copy *.* .. it says cannot find the file specificied
Mine is saying that also, did you ever figure out a workaround?

Im stuck at copy *.* .. - after hitting enter it throws me that it cannot find a file. what do I do?
For me, I got the error, it restarted, but it doesn't go into the Automatic Repair blue screen, it just resumes back to the login screen and everything seems fine. Is there still something I should be worried about? Any precautions I can take to prevent this error from interrupting my session with my PC?
When i press copy *.* .. it says cannot gind the file specified

What do I do if, when I try to do “copy *.* backup,” it says there’s not space on the disk?
Windows is on my E drive, which I thought there was a lot of space on, but it seems like there isn’t based on what it’s saying. Is there a way to do the backup and move windows safely into another storage location through command prompt?

Hi, i'am from Brazil.

When i try to write "copy *.* .." the console in next line says *.* and says that it cannot find such a file. Can someone help? Please
Dude,you rock auto update gave me this error and you my friend fixed it... thnx.
Hi! Thank you very much for making this video! Like seriously, the same happened to me some months ago and what i did was: Install Ubuntu on a different partition (With a higher size than the files i had on Windows 10) once my Ubuntu was ready and stable what i did was to copy the whole "Users" directory from the windows partition to the Ubuntu one. Once the files were safe i deleted the windows partition and installed a new fresh Windows 10, and again when it was stable what i did was to copy everything back to Windows from Ubuntu. Then i deleted the Ubuntu partition and added those free GB to the new Windows Partition. That worked perfectly for me. But i sincerely would love had found your video that time.
Thank you very much again! I had to do a lot of important stuff and i needed a fast solution.
11/10.
Seriously, thanks.
I find this hard to believe. putting back corrupted files from previous windows into a working windows 10 environment and didn't get corrupt system????
Only my windows files were corrupted, all my documents, music..etc files were in perfect state.

Hahaha np :3
What should I do if it says ‘the system cannot find the path specified’ after the windows\system32\config bit?
I got a “data error (cyclical redundancy check)” when copying backup and “the system cannot find the file specified” when copying in RegBack
OMG THANKS SOOO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO THANKS YOU
when copying in the regback folder i get data cyclic redundancy error for one file. And after exiting the BSOD thing continues. Do i have to a hard reset ?
How did you managed to solve your problem then? I'm getting the same error. 🙁
Ff.. having same issue..
Did anyone solve this??
Bad HDD
I had witih a friends laptop.
In cmd run chkdsk X: /F /X /R (Where X: is your drive letter) let it run, Manually copy in my case it was the SOFTWARE file and that resolved everything.
All was caused because of a bad update.
Whenever I try to get to Advanced Options through Automatic Repair I get a screen which says Recovery and that "my pc couldnt start properly" with an error code of 0xc0000185 basically preventing me from accessing the Advanced Options

The system cannot find the file specified when doing the last instruction of copy *.* ,, when in RegBack folder. Any idea as to why? I followed everything and on the last part to copy I get stuck. Cheers!
for everybody how has trouble with it or it doesnt work: at the begining dont write d: but c: This will go on the c drive and there is mostly the windows running on and idk why this guy has his windows on d. If you wrote c: then you just have to follow the steps but important!: if you at the point where you have to write cd d:\windows\system32\config then you have to write it with cd c: and not with cd d:

I'm stuck at the "Preparing Automatic Repair" part. It keeps doing the same thing when i restart it. Is there a shortcut key to get to the advance option quickly? I'm using lenovo
for me when i type ( copy *.* backup ) it copys 9 files and 2 of them says that there was a problem in data plss help the file i cant copy is the vsmidk
I cant click the advanced options at 1:00 what should i do ?
Thanks this worked for me! I had to use drive letter c instead of d.
Ken Davis after typing d is the process similar to the vedio
I did used C too instead of D. And it worked
I had to try to use e.
For those of you who are having the problem with the empty regback directory, this is how I got around that. First, my windows drive is C, not D
Second, the X Drive holds the files in my case during the troubleshooting portion of this.
I backed up the system32/config files on the C Drive as the video showed then went to the X Drive and copied the system32/config files to the C Drive, same folder
After a lengthy reboot, everything came back up.
Hope this helps
