If you’re a web user, then you know that having a backup of your favorite browser is essential. And if you’re like most people, you also know that finding the best backup service for your needs can be difficult. Fortunately, we’ve put together a list of the best backup Internet Explorer 7 search providers. We’ve included companies that offer both online and offline backups, as well as features like 24/7 customer support. So whether you’re looking for a reliable and affordable solution or just want to make sure your browser is always up and running, these providers should be at the top of your list.

Manual Registry Backup Method
If you are comfortable using the registry, you can just open up regedit.exe through the start menu search box and then navigate down to the following key:
Right-click on the SearchScopes key and choose to Export. Give the file a name and save it somewhere useful. To restore this list on another computer you should only have to double-click it.
Command Line Method
You can use the reg.exe method on the command line to backup this key. You can either paste this command into a command prompt or save it into a batch file.
And thus ends the mystery of backing up search providers.
