Add Registry Editor to Control Panel - Quick Guide

Adding the Registry Editor to the Control Panel

It has often seemed peculiar that users frequently employ the registry editor for resolving Windows issues. Yet, a dedicated modification to integrate the registry editor directly into the Control Panel has been absent – until now.

A registry hack has been developed to incorporate the registry editor as a readily accessible option within the Control Panel across all Windows versions.

Usage in Windows 7 and Vista

Following installation, navigate to System and Maintenance within the Control Panel. The newly added Registry Editor item will be visible at the bottom of the list.
