Windows Registry!

[Guest Aravind]

Ah.. The centralised configuration database.. This heap of data is not

present in Mac OS, the way it is in Windows.. It is even there in WOW

Vista! Except for the fact that it is a centralised open repositry it

has no pros.. But cons comes like hill.. It is very open to any kinda

attacks and most of the junks sit up, slowing down the system.. Right

from a trojan to spywares starts from registry.. And the more

astonishing fact is that, when u install more sw, the more system

slows down.. Now i'm asking for alternatives.. Either the same *.ini

files in a hierarchial locked directory structure or data in xml??

Help..

Your question is ambiguous. Are you asking for help because your system

slowed down (which is not for the reason you think) or do you want to write

your own operating system and are asking for suggestions?

 

If the former, then you need to give full details about your system so we

can help you with whatever problems you're having. These links will show

you what to include so we can help you:

If the latter, then you need to post in a different venue, perhaps a

developers' network.
