RegFromApp

RegFromApp v1.07 Copyright (c) 2008 Nir Sofer Web site: http://www.nirsoft.net Description =========== RegFromApp monitors the Registry changes made by the application that you selected, and creates a standard RegEdit registration file (.reg) that contains all the Registry changes made by the application. You can use the generated .reg file to import these changes with RegEdit when it's needed. System Requirements =================== This utility works on Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Vista (32-bit only). Older versions of Windows are not supported. Versions History ================ * Version 1.07: o Added command-line support o Added Drag & Drop support. * Version 1.06: o Fixed bug: When 'Add Only Modified Values' was checked, RegFromApp displayed Registry values that were created and then deleted. * Version 1.05: o Added support for delete Registry values. o New option: 'Add Only Modified Values' - If this option is selected, a saved Registry value will be added only if it's different from the previous value. o Added support for starting a new process. * Version 1.00 - First release. Using RegFromApp ================ RegFromApp doesn't require any installation process or additional dll files. In order to start using it, simply run the executable file - RegFromApp.exe After running it, select the process that you want to inspect, and click Ok. After clicking Ok, each time that the selected process writes a value into the Registry, the main window of RegFromApp will display the written value in Windows .reg file format. You can copy & paste the desired values to another Registry file, or alternatively, you can save the entire Registry changes into a .reg file by using the 'Save As' option. Using RegFromApp In Windows Vista ================================= RegFromApp can work in Vista even when UAC (User Account Control) is turned on, as long as the process that you wish to inspect run in the same account and security context of RegFromApp. However, if you want to inspect a process that runs under administrator account, you must also run RegFromApp as administrator.
