Includes new Registry Editor (regedit.exe) versions compatible with win98.
Practically is a Windows ME version with DOS part from win98 regedit. Includes hotfix from 98SE2ME regedit. It saves last key, includes favorites and some speedup.

regedit+.exe is using 32-bit icons and should be used with Revolutions Pack.

should the regedit.exe and regedit+.exe files be placed in the Windows folder?
that's where I had the Win98se version of regedit.exe.

regedit.exe should be placed to the \windows dir if you want.
regedit+.exe should be placed to the \windows dir and renamed to regedit.exe if you have Revolutions Pack.

KOOL! I give the modified regedit files made by Tihiy two thumbs way up!
Highly recommend it to anyone using Win98 or WinME. I'll ask MDGx on what he thinks of the new regedit files.

Tihiy,

I wonder if you can modify your regedit.exe file to bypass the need of loading setver.exe. If I run your regedit.exe file under Win95 original release which has DOS 7.0, it may give me an incorrect DOS version message.

See this site:
http://www.users.dircon.co.uk/~flibble/regsmall.html
The guy at that site modified a Win98 version of regedit.exe so that it will not require setver.exe.

so far, I've tested Tihiy's modified regedit.exe file and it only works under Win95 sr2, Win98fe & Win98se; ran it in both Windows & DOS environments. I have not tested it under the original & SR1 versions of Win95 which have MS-DOS 7.0. Win95b & Win98 have DOS 7.1.

so right now I recommend Win95b & 98 users to use Tihiy's regedit.exe file while those using Win95 orig./Win95a to get the other modified regedit.exe file from that web site I mentioned earlier and avoid using Tihiy's regedit.exe file.

UPDATE: Tihiy's modified Regedit.exe file DOES work on ALL versions of Win95, 98 & ME. However, regedit will NOT display the Favorites keys you have bookmarked when used under Win95. That means Tihiy's regedit files work properly under Win98 and ME.

I use Total Commander for all and have registry plugin for its.
I don't need regedit because regedit hasn't enough options for registry editing.
Regedit is much slower for fast registry searching and editing than my plugin
in Total Commander...
Plugin can be downloaded from www.totalcmd.net .Enjoy!

Look...

can you give us a more accurate link or even a direct dowload URL to the Registry Plugin
for Total Commander?

Check this site. It has the Registry plugin and much more. Worth browsing if you're on a plugin hunt

Thanks!

Please, Tihiy, post for me (or reply this post) changes in new Regedit.exe (this version original / WinME or modify?). I try running original Regedit WinME (original M$ CD - czech WinME) and properly busy.

RETRY PLEASE:

I've clearly stated what is this 4 years ago when i wrote this post.
I can't answer you clearlier since i can't understand what you want.

in that case, Philco needs to move on and forget about what he was asking earlier. I too can't seem to figure out what he really wants from either the modified WinME Regedit file or the original czech language WinME Regedit file he was using on his machine.

Well, let's see whether I can help:
@Philco: REGEDIT.EXE is made up of two parts: a DOS executable (starting with "MZ" at offset 0) and a 32-bit windows executable (starting with "PE" at hex offset 9DD0, in Tihiy's version). The DOS part always starts at 0 and the start of the win-32 part is always present as a word at hex offset 3C, using "Little Endian" byte order, of course. What I understand Tihiy did was to join the Win-32 part from Win ME REGEDIT.EXE with the DOS part from Win 98SE (or from Win 98 they're both v. 4.10.0.1998) REGEDIT.EXE, doing the necessary adjustments to it, and then also updating the icons in the file thus obtained. So, in fact, it's neither the original Win ME version, nor just the result of simple patching, but a true new file, resulting from a procedure more complicated than a simple patch. HTH

THX full report!

Now contains REGEDIT.TXT which has all details.

i have tired both version of regedit & regedit+, both of 'em still haven't able to search DWORD data. (well, the orginal regedit which came from win98SE cabs, also can't do it anyway).

for example i want to seach dword which value of '1252' (decimal), search result only find keys / value names / string values which has a substring of '1252' but the result has never pointed to dword value of 1252 (hex:4e3).

Try the classic shareware Registry Search & Replace by Steven J. Hoek. It may solve your problem and is free for the first 25 searches. Later edit: it also isn't capable of DWORD data searches, I've got it installed for a long time now (and regeistered) and I've just checked it. Sorry.

Regedit search is really primitive and slow. I never use it.
What I do:
I backup the entire registry to a .REG file:
run Regedit -> highlight "My Computer" [root] -> click on "Registry" from menu -> select "Export Registry File..." -> type whatever file name in the "File name" field -> browse to the drive + folder you wish -> click the Save button.

Then search this REG file [plain text] using a free(ware) Notepad replacement:

FYI:
Notepad cannot open files > 64 KB, and will eventually redirect such files to open in Wordpad.
Never use any word processors like Wordpad, MS Word [MS Office], AbiWord, OpenOffice or similar to edit REG files.
Always use plain text/ASCII editors like Notepad replacements: PFE32, Credit, Win32pad, Metapad, Notepad++, ConTEXT, etc:

I recommend RegScanner for searching your registry; it's fast and powerful, and the program is small and writes settings to a config file rather than the registry. I guess it's a plus that it's free as well, but whatever.

Pretty much everything made by Nir Sofer is pure gold.

sorry for posting on old thread

i still have problem about DWORD value, but this time with the .reg files.

while i was fiddling with IE' individual sites cookies handling override, and check how it affected the registry entry, i found that such reg file below wasn't properly merged:


the " @=dword:00000005 ", was not processed properly.
it should have create a DWORD default value, but it just leaving an empty STRING default value, instead.


i want to put several list of sites that i don't want to receive its cookies,
without have to type it and click 'block' for a few hundred times.

@queue : RegScanner is great, thank for the reference.

Yes, a new post would have been much better.

Perhaps your reg file did not merge correctly because it is missing a blank line at the end of it. Inf files also require one blank like to end with or so we are told. I have the same value in my registry and exported it to compare and not one whit of difference between the two texts exits. Missing blank line is the only remaining shot in the dark I have...

Also you may want to 'update' your registry and then check the values again. This is done by clicking Start|Shut Down and then clicking Cancel. Then refresh your registry values again to see what they really are, some registry writes are delayed until the shut down dialog box shows for God only knows what reason, but the .Default key just seems to sit up and beg for it somehow.
