Red face Re-install programs after rom udate

Can I use a backup program to reinstall applications after a rom update. I have tested every rom that came out but manually reinstalled all the apps after rom update. Any help would be great.
Thanks ,
Victoria

That's not a good idea: if the registry structure has been changed, from the previous rom to the new one, when you restore your backup, it can really mess things up!

I use the Rom upgrade utility from Sprite and it does the job always. No issues yet. Follow the instructions to the letter though..

I use SpbBackup with great results, but like vmiguel said, you shouldn't restore backups between ROM flashes as it restores ALL settings and registry entries, and this aint a good idea unless on the same ROM.

That depends on the software. Most work well, others require WM6 support.
