Designed to run on a system that you have NOT booted from the cdrom drive after all it wouldn't do much good to optimize & backup the PE registry.

Add'l language files are also available at the above listed website and did I mention that this is donationware?

Would like some help in understanding...if this is to work for a system that you dont boot from cdrom, then what is the point in the plugin? Obviously it works in pe, im supposing, but to get it to show up on nu2menu, wouldnt you have to boot from cdrom, and therefore, wouldnt it always backup/optimize your pe registry? Also, I know people are using pe on hard drive, which I guess this plugin would be for them...u may want to make a note, I forget what the field is called, but its right under the title, I would add FOR WINPEHD ONLY, just for future reference if you are going to post plugins for hd use only. I havent tried it out, but I think it would be great for those using pe on hd as most usually have it on there to test certain things it would be great to make a backup so you dont lose everything, and also an optimizer for when youre done adding something.

While this will run from a WinPE HD installation that is not what it was designed for. Sometimes as a diagnostician we come up to a machine that is already running Windows that was booted from the HD. Why reboot the system & wait for PE to load when stand alone apps like this will run? These apps are designed to work with the 'active' system & user registries and if we boot the cd then the only active registry is the PE registry.

Just walk up to the already running system insert the cd & run the apps.
