Viewing and Manipulating the Registry

TABLE 4: AVAILABLE REG OPERATIONS
Operation Name What It Does
Add Adds a single key or value to the local or remote machine.
Query Lets you query for a value, or, absent a value, returns all keys and values under the key you specify.
Delete Deletes a value or a key and all of its subkeys (includes an option to force the deletion).
Copy Copies the specified key and all of its subkeys and values to another Registry key, either local or remote.
Save Saves a key and all of its subkeys and values to a binary file for restoring later (performs the same function as the Save operation in Regedt32).
Restore Restores a binary file created by Save, Backup, or the Regedt32 Save function to a key in the Registry. Note that the key you are restoring must first be created.
Load Lets you load a hive file into a temporary key in the current Registry (see section on loading and unloading hives later in this chapter).
Unload Lets you unload the hive from the temporary key you created with the Load command.
Export Exports keys to .reg file format. Similar to Regedit-e function.
Import Imports .reg file format Registry files. Similar to Regedit.
Compare Finds differences between two sets of Registry keys, either on a local machine or between a local and remote machine.
