Beyond compare – prefix any registry key comparisons with reg:\\
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/08/03
When you start with a blank registry comparison, then you need to compare keys copied from RegEdit with reg:\
For instance, when fixing [WayBack] Delphi fails to start after Windows did some “Program Compatibility Assistant” magic to it when BDS.exe crashed because the compiler ran out of memory:… – Jeroen Wiert Pluimers – Google+ I compared these:
reg:\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS
reg:\\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\JeroenProfile
Note: Beyond compare registry settings are in:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Scooter Software\Beyond Compare 4HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Scooter Software\Beyond CompareHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Scooter Software\Beyond Compare 4HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Scooter Software\Beyond CompareHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Scooter Software\Beyond Compare 4
