Good Registry Editor for Universal

Anyone use a registry Editor for Universal? What is the best one out there?

I personally use Resco File Explorer, hit two (well technically three) things on the head with one program
excellent program, superb file explorer, with built in ftp and registry editor.
*edit* need sleep, corrected typo

Yer i find resco the triple whammy aswell

A simple Google search would reveal some excellent freeware alternatives to Resco, or you could even search these forums. :roll:
As your starter for ten, try searching for "TRE registry editor" or "PHM regedit". Both of those are free and work perfectly for me on my Exec.

what are some good free registry programs?

what are good programs that i can put on my MDA
someone showed me resco explorer but that cost money and someone showed me Wizard_registry_tweaks. from this site.
but when i install it, it doesnt show up under start/programs.
can someone help me with that, or just show me an alterenative registry program?

Check out this link
http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/utilities_registry.shtml
It is a link to Freewareppc.com's registry utilities page. I like resco exlorer myself but a good second choice is the PHM registry editor (4th link on page)

TotalCommander CE is great, and its FREE! Just google "total commander"
File explorer, Registry, etc

I use regedit_820.exe

The Wizard_registry_tweaks is not an application. When you run the .cab file, it puts the registry entries contained inside the cab into your registry. After a soft reset, the changes should be good to go.

Which registry editor?

Searched high and low on the forums and wiki, but can't find an answer. Which registry editor are people using?
Thanks,
Chris

For me am using Total Commander.
Not solely a registry editor, but allows access to registry to views keys etc. Also gives you ftp, enhancement to the file explorer and much more and above all that its free!!
BTW: Used to use PHM Registry editor but total commander replaced it as it was duplicating the same function.

phm.
it's my favourite price - free! :lol:

Good stuff, thank you both...

RESCO is your friend
Resco appears to be the best registry editor - or so the forums and reviews say. It certainly makes life easy for me. It also comes with a 31 day trial... so you can check it out
Make sure you get the WM5 one under Smartphones on their website though.. I think that the other ones have 14 day trials

Where can i find RESCO registry editor? Is it free?

http://www.resco.net/pocketpc/explorer/indepth.asp#registry
not free -

my favorite is mobile registry editor.
i hate editing the reg through the phone. id rather do it from my laptop via cable or bluetooth.

second hiimcliff, but i use SOTI POCKET COMMANDER.. also OP, most cooked ROMS come with built in registry editors. i know my black majik came with one.

PHM
PHM Registry Editor is intuitive to me for regediting, so I continue to use it. Small, free, does registry backups, stores 'favorites', can directly copy key names to the clipboard, multi-pane display, and I've never had any problems with it.
I also have Total Commander installed and love it for file management, but I usually need to use both panes for file management and cant spare one for reg editing The ROM I burned came with TRE, but I removed it.

For some reason PHM doesn't install on my vista computer. Any ideas?

Tasco Registry editor is one of the best and is free.
It will also import reg files so customizations can be saved and restored without having to re-do them manually after hard resets
PHM will save reg files but will not restore them..

I use both PHM Registry Editor and Total Commander, but prefer PHM for it's simplicity.
@celicatoe46m3: PHM install's on the device not the PC.

Registry Access...

can somebody make this a sticky for future reference...
i'm seeing lots of ways to edit the wizard registry and yet i can't find a post show how to access the wizard registry itself.. i need help..

You need a registry editor. Being someone who hates uni-task devices, I recommend Total Commander CE. It is a great file manager, has a built-in registry editor, FTP and LAN client controls, and an ASCII editor (Max 64kb). While many prefer Resco Explorer, I prefer FREE.
Total Commander CE Website/Download
HOW TO:
Open TC-CE.
Click \ (near the top) to jump quickly to the root.
Click \\Plugins
Click registry
You are now IN the registry. Navigate as needed, edit/delete entries, create new directories and new entries, etc. to your heart's content.
Disclaimer: Anything you do to your registry that bricks your phone is not my problem. If you don't know what you're doing, just DON'T.
Final Word: This doesn't need to be stickied. You need to use the search features. Most questions any newbie has have already been asked a hundred times, and while I don't mind answering them again, others may not be so friendly about it. (In fact, I have occasionally not been friendly about it, myself.)

Where is the registry editor in Windows?

Guys I know it was posted somewhere on here that you could create a shortcut to the default windows registry editor but I can't seem to find what directory it is in? I have searched and can't find any threads that detail this and can't find it in the windows or system directories (yes I am showing all files).
Any help would be appreciated.

As far as I am aware there is no 'built in' registry editor in windows mobile. There is one in desktop versions of windows like xp etc. There are plenty of free alternatives if you search around.

I am sure there was one on windows mobile or one that was free at least. There was a trial version of the resco explorer package that came with a registry editor but that was time bombed I believe (or was that just for the file explorer.exe)?
Any help on any free reg edit tools if the windows one isn't available?

by far the easiest and best way to edit the reg when at home is ceregistry editor which runs on the pc.
for free ones on the phone itself, people usually go for total commander.

Hi folks, I now recall which one I used (PHMregistry editor). So thanks for everyones comments. I like the thought of editing the registry from the PC so will give that a go also.
Once again many thanks.
