Part Overview

Working with the registry is daunting if you know little about it. Thus, in this part, you master the basic information you need to successfully leverage the registry. For example, you learn about the contents of the registry and the types of data you find in it. You learn how to back up and restore the registry, and how to edit the registry using Registry Editor.

This part is for IT professionals and power users. Aside from learning the basics and backing up the registry, for example, it describes how to hack settings in the registry to customize Windows XP. Many of the settings you learn about in this part aren't available through the user interface. This part also describes one of the most popular downloads on the Internet: Tweak UI. Instead of showing you how to use this simple program, however, it describes where the program stores each and every one of its settings in the registry.

Read this part from beginning to end. Don't skip it. With the basics under your belt, and a sense of what you can do with the registry, you'll be better prepared to tackle the content elsewhere in this book.
