RegCool is a program for Windows that comes with an advanced registry editor. There is a wide selection of tools for searching, copying and defragmenting data.
Processing
The application structures the registry with a tree view on the left and detailed value panels on the right, similar to explorer-like interfaces. Users can cut, copy, paste, rename or delete hierarchical objects and values, including those normally hidden with the right privileges. Context menus and toolbars provide quick access to replace and compare functions.
There is a fast search engine with both wildcard and regex support, allowing comprehensive queries across keys, values and data. It is possible to view local registry snapshots or files from remote machines, enabling examination of differences after system changes.
Additional tools
Backups and restores are built directly into the interface, letting you archive and reinstate registry states as needed. For saving other data before changes, you may install Reg Organizer. Besides, you can edit components offline and hive imports, so changes are made without affecting the live system. A defragmentation tool is available as well to consolidate storage for potential performance gains.
