What's your favorite replacement app? [Regedit.exe & Windows Explorer]
Would be interesting to hear your opinion in what you like to work with and what might be most developed in your taste.
Here is a small example of the most interesting registry tool's that I know for the moment. For me I appreciate features like:
1. Ability to make comparison between changes in the registry (making snapshots to keep in a database). Perfect for trace changes made from installers.
2. A good fast tool for making searches that shows the results for preview in a panel, line by line easy to see. Even better if the search function can be integrated with browsers, clipboard and open up the editor directly from a webpage or from a text-line.
3. Ability to manage and edit permissions for keys. (A must have).
4. Very few have this but never wrong to get easy description over keys with explanations together with good helpfiles for the program.
5. Easy to handle import-export functionality, making backups e.t.c. Additional, working remotely with other computers in networks.
6. Forgot mention..Loading hives from files.
7. Ability in change layout, themes and manage different items like saved favorites, searches or making notes. I like innovative new stuff in all kind of software and enjoy to see it in software I use.

Oh yes, File managing tools..Almost forgot.
Here is a couple of these I know that can replace Windows Explorer:
Q-dir, a free tool that can work with up to 4 folders (panels) at the same time.
Quite nice when moveing files from one directory to another.
Quad Explorer for Windows - Q-Dir
Directory Opus 9 from GP Software (expencive but nice)
Introduction to Directory Opus
Have not yet had time to search that much for Explorer replacers but imagine there's alot to find out there:dance:
