How do I just restore my program files and data? My previous os got corrupted. I used the windows backup and restore and it restores the previous os that I don't want.
Restore program files and data not Os.

Did you put everything on one big partition?
You have to reinstall all your program files. Most programs keep the data they need to run in the registry. A no, you can not copy the old registry to the new PC.
For keeping important data, it should be on a separate partition if you have not done that already. If your program files are on a separate partition, just reinstall over the old location and it will keep your program settings/game save file. (you should still back these things up just incase).
