[QUOTE="Nico@FMA, post: 226942, member: 8154"] Well to start with Windows Registry has a centralized function within the OS as described above. However WR also has a authority function and a dynamic policy function. And within this article the focus is on WR as a engine to keep W-OS running, however it fails to mention what role the WR really plays in towards other programs. For example most programs could not run without being registered into the WR. But more importantly it does not mention the journal functions within the WR. Keep in mind that the WR is the true roadmap trough the system, without the WR windows would not be capable of running any driver or upper level software program. But its also the centralized place where ini like configurations are stored. People do not realize that the true brain of W-OS is the register. In windows 95 and previous versions windows register did have a secondary role to play as older windows versions where "ini" config based so without explicit config based commands the OS was brain death. However in later generations of the W-OS the register did become dynamic and can adapt to the system and the user profile by adding, removing, enabling, disabling keys to suit the current overall system config and semi adapt on its own without being subject to windows authority system, as this finds it origin brain wise and config wise directly in the WR itself. Out of all the windows functions the Windows register is the only part that does not fall under windows protection policies, in fact it dictates how windows should apply its very routines and security. So one could say that W-OS is the main authority on a system, but the true authority behind the scenes is the Windows register. Control the WR = control windows and if windows itself would control the WR it would crash and become brain death. That being said the importance of the register goes way beyond what is described in your fine article I have a bit difficulty to explain what i mean as its hard to write it in English, but i hope you understand what i am trying to explain.
