Click Start then Run and type regedit and then click OK. There is your Registry. Be VERY careful in there though...you can really mess up a computer that way.

If Windows XP, go to Start-Run, type regedit and see the registry.

It's in two hidden files in the windows directory. They have the file extension .DAO. You can access the registry with the program regedit.exe or regedt32.exe. It is possible to export the registry to a text file.

go to 'run' in the start menu and type in regedit and it'll bring up your registry... don't muck about with it though if you don't know what you're doing or you may cause huge problems and ruin your pc

click on your start menu button and then click on run. when this window opens, type in regedit for win2000,xp. this will open your registry. be very careful about making changes here, because you can crash your system in here.

It is a database somewhere under the WINDOWS folder which contains all the info about the computer and everything running on it. Hardware, software etc.

You can get do it by running regedit from start --> run. Don't mess with it unless you know what you're doing. Assuming you're using windows.
