Hello-
I am trying to export some registry keys before I overwrite them in case I need to restore them later. I seem to be having trouble with the syntax or maybe the placement of the quotes. I want to export them as a .reg file and place them in a folder called "Registry Backups" from whatever directory the script is executed from. Below is my feable attempt that is not working. It is just a test right now before I actually add it to a larger script I am working on. If this seems like the wrong way to go about this or whatever please advise me but bare in mind that I am still trying to learn so my level of knowledge is low and I likely can not implement anything overly complex. Thank you in advance for your time.
