With any luck, Scanreg will detect the corruption at bootime and revert to the previous registry.
Why do you think it is corrupted? |

As I said in the first post, scanreg should detect it and revert to a previous one.
It all depends on what exactly is corrupted. If it is structural then scanreg should find it. If it is a key that has gotten mangled somehow, then scanreg will probably not care, but Windows or some other app may, and then fail. |

In answer to your question Juany, The computer would probably not boot into windows.
