Does an alternative to regedit.exe exist?
- by Peter Mortensen
Is there something better than regedit.exe for searching and editing the Windows registry?
Update 1: Registrar Registry Manager 6.50 from Resplendence Software Projects, free lite edition meets the two requirements listed below. Direct download URL (2.7 MB). Search can also be restricted to a particular branch in the registry. However exporting and sorting on columns in the search window is disabled in the lite version (and there may be other limitations). I haven't yet evaluated the other candidates.
In particular I would like to be able to batch search instead of having to step through with F3.
And a go to function that will open a particular registry key, e.g. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer, instead of having to go through from the top,
Platform: Windows XP.
