- Description
- ~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Active Registry Monitor (ARM) is an utility designed for analysing the changes made
- to Windows Registry - by making the "snapshots" of it and keeping them in the browsable database.
- You can compare any two snapshots and get the list of keys/data which are new, deleted or just changed.
- ARM can do comparing not only in the entire Regisrty, but also in any key of the Registry.
- It is also possible to exclude any keys of the Registry from compare results.
- Moreover, you can create undo/redo files (for example, to rollback the changes).
- To view the current state of a key, or to modify it, you can use Jump to Regedit function.
- Contents of any key can be exported to *.reg file.
-
- Very useful for detecting trojan viruses and elimination some problems caused by software and
- hardware install/uninstall.
-
- Unlike Registry monitoring software (such as RegMon and Win-Expose Registry), and most uninstallers
- (CleenSweep, Uninstall, etc.), ARM compares full copies of the Registry made at different times,
- while the software mantioned above just monitors all accesses to the Registry in real time.
- So, our method allows to track all the changes, and doesn't affect the system performance.
-
-
- Here is a brief list of ART features:
-
- - Scan different copies Registry into a special file and browse/search them "off-line"
-
- - Scan the Registry on a remote computer
-
- - Compare different copies of the Registry
-
- - Compare individual branches of different copies of the Registry
-
- - Undo and Redo Registry changes based on comparison results: directly from the program or by generating the REG-files
-
- - Save any key of the Registry into the REG-file
-
- - Fast search in Keys, Values and Data
-
- - Bookmarks
-
- - Opening selected key in the RegEdit
-
- - Optional command-line interface for automated Registry scanning
-
- - Convenient navigation between corresponding keys of different Registry copies and comparison results
-
- - Adding comments to each copy of the Registry scanned
-
- - Full insatll / uninstall support
-
-
