Windows 2008 - regedit - highligh open folder?

[Guest boe]

Hello,

 

I'm new to 2008 server. I'm searching through my registry using regedit

but when it goes into registry folder e.g. hklm\software\microsoft - it

doesn't highlight microsoft in the left pane of regedit so it can be hard to

track down what fold you are in if you are many layers deep other than

looking at the bottom and then tracking down where that folder is.

 

Is there a new registry editor I need to use that includes the highlight

function for the open folder?

 

 

Thanks

Hello boe,

 

If you look at the bottom of the regedit window, you can read the full path

where you are. But i agree that the color underlined folder was a good option.

 

Best regards

Thanks - that is what I'm talking about - I have to look at the bottom and

then search for it in the left hand pain in the a. It used to highlight

the folder that you were in on the left hand side while you worked in the

right hand pane. Anyone know of a new command that replaces regedit that

keeps the better functionality of the old regedit?
