B. Create a restore point. Before modifying the registry keys, the technician should create a restore point. Creating a restore point allows the system to be rolled back to its previous state in case anything goes wrong during the registry modification. This precautionary step helps mitigate the risk of unintended consequences and provides a way to revert the system to a stable state if needed. It's a good practice to create a restore point before making significant changes to the system, especially in critical areas like the Windows Registry. Source ChatGPT
