IDEA: Open Registry by selecting Registry Path

(1/2) > >>

Nzyme:
Hi,

I have often come across webpages that advise users to perform some registry operations for fixing / tweaking / etc. The steps would include something like - Open the following path in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

I am sure you would agree that navigating manually through every branch in RegEdit is a pain. I am looking for a program / add-on / script / etc, which can be used in the following way:

1. Select the registry path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

2. Right-click on the selected registry path and select a context menu option like "Go to" or "Open" --> "Registry". This would open RegEdit and all the branches in the selected path.

Would be a really helpful feature...Think about it...

Try RegScanner

One of the features listed is Open Regedit to key in the clipboard.

Just close the search box(press Esc) and hit F7.

RegJump is what I use (along with a simple AHK clipboard script).

skwire, I think you mentioned that once before. Thanks for reminding. I have SysInternals Suite.  RegJump is a good candidate for Selector.  Once I drag regjump onto the Selector Gui, I can hit Shift / keys then double click RegJump to open RegEdit to the key that's selected in the active window. I forgot to add it to the list in Selector the last time you mentioned it.

I tried using RegJump but nothing happens when I run it. I suppose I am missing something...Can you provide the steps to get this working along with AHK scripts?
