OK I've got most of my files backed up, but how do I back my settings up?

I don't wish to have to spend hours turning on and off the settings that I want or annoy me respectively. Folder views especially, it took a while of 'training' on Windows to get it to display certain folders how I liked them to be displayed. Are there any programs which will enable me to save and restore settings with a few clicks?

Also I have 3 other partitions on this disk - would they be affected by the MFT problem? I have chkdsk'ed them individually via the command line and they don't seem to be affected at all by the problem on the c: partition. Or would the other partitions be f$cked too if I tried to format the c: partition leading to loss of all data?

Really is sod's law isn't it - I get it all working and it all falls apart!
