MJ Registry Watcher v1.2.8.1 Updated

Checker on 28 Mar 2013
  • 1MB (uncompressed)
  • Suggested by AlephX

MJ Registry Watcher is a system tray program that monitors and alerts you to changes to any registry keys files or folders. The default set of keys and files should ensure that nothing gets run at startup without your knowledge and important boot up files don't get changed behind your back, but you can configure it to suit your own needs. The program can also keep a full history of alerts in a log file.

Wow, it's back to being freeware again!
The best, lightest registry monitor of it's kind around.

I cannot download MJ Registry Watcher 1.2.7.2. Avast blocks it saying that it's a malware... arwwdwin.exe in the zip seems to be the culprit.
Any idea about this problem?

dany on 2011-06-26 20:10

arwwdwin.exe is a watchdog program that makes sure that RegWatcher can't be terminated by malicious software without you knowing it. It's not harmful in this case, but these kind of programs do often trigger false positives. That's a good thing, but it's up to you to decide if the program is legit or not.
You can always check out the RegWatcher forums or scan the file at http://virusscan.jotti.org/ if you're not sure.
Version 1.2.7.3 is completely clean on jotti.org

@Kea - Did you check 'Do real clean (simulation otherwise)' lower left corner?

Kea on 2012-11-18 19:08

Yes, I used "Do real clean"...

Midas on 2012-11-19 10:17

Then maybe USBOblivion didn't run with the required privileges: try right click and "Run as administrator"...

Registry Commander v13.02.23 Updated

Checker on 24 Feb 2013
  • 693KB (uncompressed)
  • Suggested by Tom

Registry Commander is designed to replace Windows RegEdit. It supports all 12 data types in the registry, defined in the "winnt.h" header file. The advanced search feature allows you to search part or all of the registry by keyword, size or data type. You can bookmark keys or values so that they can be accessed more quickly. You can also change the data type of a value without affecting its content.

Category:
System Requirements: Win95 / Win98 / WinME / WinNT / Win2K / WinXP / Vista / Win7
Writes settings to: Application folder. A registry editor that does not use the registry. What delicious irony!
Stealth: ? Yes
Unicode support: No
License: Freeware
How to extract: Download the RAR package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch RegCmd.exe.
What's new?
  • Bookmarks are now saved entirely as raw text, this makes it a lot more simple and easier to edit manually. Old bookmark files will automatically be converted. This also fixes the 256 string length limitation the old format had.
  • It is now possible to copy the current path and current path URL to the clipboard from the main menu.
  • Left clicking on the path header will no longer copy the path to the clipboard, but will instead show the history list.
  • New option added to the configurations dialog, which lets you remember the history between sessions.
  • Selected sound file now also plays after full registry export.
  • The "Entire Registration Database" search scope will now only search HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_USERS. All other roots are just subkeys of these two roots.
  • Search window position and filter settings are now saved between sessions.
  • Each section of the search dialog now has a shortcut key associated with it.
  • The type formatting for keys now supports the "%T" option, it will display the last modification time using the long date & time format. The already existing "%t" uses the short date & time format.
  • Initial font setting is now defaulted to the system font instead of "Tahoma".
  • The value type formatting for hex values "%h", has been added a second formatting method in the form of "%H". Lower case "%h" will format the hex values in lower case (a..f), "%H" will be upper case (A..F).
  • Optimized the speed and memory usage of the hexadecimal formatting display type (%H and %h).
  • Rewrote the key and value enumeration loop, both for the main window, but also for the search dialog. It should now be using less memory, and hopefully be a little faster too.
  • Open and save dialogs are now using a modern style look.
  • Fixed an issue with no type icon for bookmark items that were of a non standard registry data type.
  • It's no longer possible to incorrectly search the current key or root while in root mode. Select specific root key or entire registration database.
  • The current root handle is now stored in the "config.ini" file as a string, rather than the integer value. This makes it consistent with the rest of the program, and also makes it easier to edit manually.
  • The bookmarks listview no longer flickers when items are being added during an active search.
  • Added an option under the Visial tab of the configurations dialog to change the icon library used. This changes the icons used to identify each registry data type. If you create a custom ICL, feel free to send it this way.
  • When the icon library loaded from the "config.ini" file does not exist, a warning is shown, and the icons are loaded internally instead. Go to the options to pick a valid icon library.
  • Fixed a pointer error when saving hex value data from the edit value dialog.

A victim of its own success? "CPU Limit Reached"! (http://error404.000webhost.com/cpu-limit-reached.html)

SoftPedia wasn't able to update (http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Registry-Tweak/Registry-Commander.shtml) and RegCmd_13.02.23.rar is nowhere to be found (at least by googling, so don't bother); you can watch a video of it (http://youtu.be/f3zweTbW8xU)... >:)

@Midas
Google worked for me, found a hosted copy at:
http://rsload.net/soft/registry/13005-aezay-registry-commander.html

The site is Russian, but the download will break if translated, just scroll down the page and look for the hyperlink:
Скачать: Aezay Registry Commander v13.02.23

Midas on 2013-02-26 10:37

Site is back up...

Thanks for that, Ruby, but I had already gotten it from the guy who posted that video. It might be of help to others. Anyway, grateful for the consideration... :)

Awesome! Just what I was looking for. Simple and fast!

olfoo on 2008-10-31 18:42

..thru many years and several versions I've always been pleased and sometimes amazed at what this mature useful tool can do. Backup your registry then do check out the many option. 8^) olfoo P.S. It does a fast search and delete on the registry. Search ...when finding many hits ..mark by pressing Ctrl and click on the first item you want to rid and then use (as appropriate) the UP or DOWN arrow to very rapidly mark many others.

Ccleaner found 0 problems
Argente - Registry Cleaner found 988 problems

BGM on 2012-11-28 01:19

Ccleaner never finds very many. I think that is because it only cleans what is absolutely safe. I've used "Free Registry Cleaner" for a long time, and found from experience that you don't want to remove all keys just because they are empty. Some programs (Microsoft is a culprit) use GUIDs as key names, and they refer to the key name - it doesn't have to have a value. Now, I don't know how many reg-cleaners can tell if a key name has a GUID.
