Solved how to list particular entry from registry ???

Kernel · Mar 18, 2009

Hi friends,

Is there any tool that can list particular key/entry (i.e firefox) from everywhere in the registry ???

Reason:

I have install DU Meter to monitor network traffic/usage...which installs gadget for the sidebar as well. For some reason i uninstall and re-install the application and i cannot get the gadget listed when i try to add

.

thanks in advance

C:\>reg query /?
REG QUERY KeyName [/v [ValueName] | /ve] [/s]
[/f Data [/k] [/d] [/c] [/e]] [/t Type] [/z] [/se Separator]

...
REG QUERY HKLM /f SYSTEM /t REG_SZ /c /e
Displays Key, Value and Data with case sensitive and exact
occurrences of "SYSTEM" under HKLM root for the data type REG_SZ
================

If you know what string you're looking for, that search will find it. Regedit.exe can search too, of course.

Hello Prasath,

In addition to H2S04's post, you can search the registry for a particular key/entry with this.

Hope this helps,

I appreciate your quick reply.

As i mentioned, if it could list all the entries that i am looking for, on a single window, it would be easy to delete all of them in a single attempt.

Example in excel.

Hi Kernel,

You could try Nir Sofer's Regscanner,
