Working with Windows Registry in C# - Final Words
(Page 5 of 5 )

You see, we've come to the end of this tutorial. Give yourself a pat on the back because now you can read, write, modify, and delete from/to the Windows Registry. This is very useful knowledge to have in a coder's arsenal because the things you can do with the registry are almost limitless.

Please do understand that this tutorial article mainly targets the beginner or intermediate programmer-- generally C# coders are familiar with the syntax of the language, but haven't had the chance to work with the registry yet. Therefore, I have started almost from the beginning, but leaped ahead assuming that the reader is able to follow along. It doesn't target the pros.

All kinds of settings and information about the operating system are stored in the registry, starting with file associations, usernames, and directory paths, all the way up to system policies and the specific details of any installed software. Whether you are designing a stand-alone application that works on Windows or just writing a simple script for administrative purposes, you can bet that working with the registry could make your job easier.
