Put simply, the Windows registry
is a central repository of information
about all aspects of the
computer – in particular, its hardware,
operating system, applications and users.
It can be accessed and updated
under software control and also directly
by users.
The registry first appeared in Windows
3.1. In that system it was a single
file, called REG.DAT, and was mainly
used to store information about OLE
objects. Most other configuration data
was held in various INI files, of which
WIN.INI and SYSTEM.INI were the
most important.
The modern registry, as found in
Windows 9x and NT, brings together
all the information thatwas previously
held in REG.DAT and the separate INI
files.
