Regedit?

I didn't find a registry editing applet like "regedit" in our Vista Home
Premium installation. Is there a Vista equivalent to this program?

Neil

at the top....

Regedit isn't an applet (it's not in the Control Panel) but rather an
application. Click the Start orb and type in regedit.exe in the search
box and hit enter. That will launch the registry editor that you are
familiar with.

Yes. It's called regedit! (-:

Re: Regedit?

Interestingly, I found it as "regedt32", not regedit!

Thanks, anyway!

Neil

In earlier versions of the platform (NT3, Windows 2000) regedit and
regedt32 were separate applications. In XP and Vista regedt32 is hardly
more than a stub that launches regedit.exe.

Re: Regedit?

C:\Windows\System32\regedt32.exe is a stub that starts
C:\Windows\regedit.exe.
