RegReplace (Windows NT And Later)
Description & History:
The windows registry can be a very powerful configuration tool. The Windows registry was implemented to store all configurable program and operating system settings. For an IT administrator, it is occasionally convenient to change a single string in the registry multiple times. For example, changing all references to 'John Fired Doe' to 'Bryan Berns' on a workstation or changing all reference from 'D:\' to 'C:\' in the case of a hard drive switch. RegReplace, a program written in C++ using standard windows libraries, implements this functionality.
