  "The registry is a structured database ...
  There are a number of books and web sites that detail what information is contained in what sections."

  I have always been fascinated by Windows registry, and baffled by it.  Everybody always cautions: "Don't fool with the registry ] unless you really know what you are doing."[I'm sure they are referring to the  "REGEDIT" utility.    

  So this is the part of Microsoft Windows  they think us ordinary people aren't smart enough  to fix.  Or they would rather we take our glitched computers down to the cooperating rip 'em off'  computer store and have our hard drive *wiped*, or maybe  buy another machine.

  Bah!  Which website or digitized book would you recommend?

  Thanks.

  regards from Charles
