I'm using Windows Server and accidentally deleted a registry key, which has caused a specific app to stop running. I'm looking for ways to restore the deleted registry key. Any suggestions?

You might consider just reinstalling the app. Sometimes that can restore any missing components, including the registry keys it needs to run properly.

Did you happen to back up the registry before making changes? That would be the easiest way to restore it. If not, do you have a full server backup that you can restore from? Alternatively, you could launch the backup on a virtual machine to access Regedit and retrieve the key manually if you know what it is.
