Windows 10 1803+ no longer creates backup copies of the registry (on Feedback Hub)

Iron Contributor

The RegIdleBackup scheduled task no longer creates backup copies of the registry hives in the RegBack folder. This is a major blow to the Windows emergency restore abilities. Think of [forum] support when the OS won't boot and the restore points won't work.

 

Check in #PowerShell:

Get-ScheduledTask regidlebackup | Get-ScheduledTaskInfo
dir c:\windows\system32\config\regback
