    Resolved [RESOLVED] Question Regarding Registry Keys On Desktop PC And Laptop

    I have a desktop pc and a laptop both running Windows XP Home Edition Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.120821-1629 : Service Pack 3) as shown by winver.

    The desktop pc has the following registry keys:-
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet003
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet

    Whereas the laptop has the following registry keys:-
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet002
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet

    Is this correct ?

    Both the pc and the laptop appear to work OK.

    Numbering doesn't matter. It's fine. ControlSet00# are backup sets for your main "CurrentControlSet"

    Thanks for your reply Midknyte.

    Glad to know that there is nothing to worry about with the numbering.
