Abstract
Emergency Repair Disk (ERD) commander is one of the finest compilations of emergency utilities for Microsoft systems administrators. With its graphical and command line environments that have the ability to access any Windows NT files system from a bootable CD in a Windows-like environment, it is an integral part of the Windows administrator's toolbox. There have been many times that one has been greeted by the Blue Screen of Death after installing a hot-fix, and it was ERD that came to the rescue. The most common tasks will focus on resetting passwords (Locksmith) and rolling back whatever you did last to mess things up in Windows (System Restore and Hot-fix Uninstall). In XP one can use the System Restore Point functionality. In other versions of Windows one can remove a hot-fix to restore the system to a bootable state. While it may not be possible to restore it back to absolute system stability, it will get back into a Windows environment where one has the full range software tools to complete the job.
