TuneUp Registry Editor

The registry contains information about all hardware and software

installed on your computer. As you add hardware and software to your

computer, the registry grows and over time becomes big and filled with

unnecessary entries.

If you're looking for a tool with which you can manually manipulate the

cog wheels that run Windows then TuneUp Registry Editor is the tool

for you.

The editor displays the registry: a tree structure of keys and sub keys

which are grouped according to categories. The left window named

Folder contains a directory structure. Each directory represents a single

key. Double click a key to view its sub keys. When you reach a leaf key

in the hierarchy the right window will display keys and their values

which you can then edit.

Right click a value to display a pop-up menu that contains options for

manipulating this value. Delete removes this value from the registry.

Rename renames the key. Change allows you to change the value

stored in the key.

Right clicking a directory displays a different popup menu containing

more options. Search allows you to search for directories and values in

the registry. Set bookmark adds a virtual bookmark to your bookmarks

list so that you can quickly find this directory if you ever require it

again. Bookmarks are shown in the lower third of your screen in the

Bookmark tab. The Search Results tab contains all matches found for

the search you issued.
