RegEditX 2.0 - Tweaks for the Windows Registry Editor (REGEDIT)
The Registry Editor enhanced by RegEditX."Excellent utility. You're absolutely right when you say one will never want to edit the registry any other way. A godsend ...." - B.X.
Why RegEditX?RegEditX makes your registry editing more productive than ever. RegEditX extends the standard Windows Registry Editor (REGEDIT), so you don't have to learn new ways of accomplishing tasks you already know how to perform. Just keep using the same familiar Registry Editor --- more efficiently.
Once you've tried RegEditX, you won't want to edit the registry any other way.
Extensions Overview
The new toolbar contains buttons to launch the innovative Registry Crawler for lightning fast searches and bookmarks.
The new combo box under the menu bar tracks the registry keys which you have viewed or edited. Continue using REGEDIT as you did before --- expand keys in the tree or edit them in the list --- and these keys automatically appear in the combo box. Then navigate back to them by selecting them from the combo box.
The new combo box also lets you Cut, Copy, and Paste keys to and from the Windows clipboard. Many online documents contain references to keys such as HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\DCSoft\RegEditX. Simply copy this text to the clipboard and paste it into the combo box to instantly navigate to it.
The list columns are "automagically" resized to optimally show key values - no more mouse gyrations to resize columns as you navigate to different keys.
A RegEditX pull-down menu is added to manage RegEditX.
Run RegEditX from any command-line (or open the Start menu and select Run) simply by typing "RegEditX <start key>".
Works with Windows 98 / ME / 2K / XP.
New Extensions in 2.0 BETA
Remove extra spaces before and after '\' when pasting key, recognizing registry keys formatted in on-line documents.
Double-click in edit box selects subkey between '\'.
As you type into the combo box, the tree of keys is incrementally navigated. Once the key that you want is selected in the tree, simply type RETURN or the backslash ('\') and the key is completed for you.
As you type or paste into the combo box, keys starting with common aliases such as HKLM, HKCU, HKCR, HKCC, HKU are recognized and expanded. In addition, the even shorter (LM, CU, CR, CC, U) are recognized and expanded also.
As you type into the combo box, Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right stop at backslashes, making it easy to select parts of a key.
Windows Vista New!
RegEditX does work on Windows Vista. However, it needs to be Run As Administrator.
