As you can imagine, editing the registry opens up a Pandora's box. On one hand, it gives you almost infinite possibilities for changing the look, feel and operation of your Windows XP system. On the other hand, improper registry edits can cripple your system, and if a malicious program manages to access and install itself in the registry, removing it can be difficult and time consuming.
In this article, we will take a behind the scenes look at the Windows XP registry. The composition of the registry will be examined, as well as how to backup and protect and restore it. Once we have that out of the way, we will examine some of the things you can easily achieve by editing the registry yourself.
