jv16 PowerTools 2009 - Registry Find and Replace

The Registry Find and Replace tool allows you to find and replace data from the registry. The degree of flexibility and safety of use will make this tool invaluable to you.

The feature is especially useful when fixing the registry after a changed hard drive letter. For example, you have purchased a new hard drive and you have moved your C:\Programs directory to D:\Programs. Of course, none of the programs actually work since the registry still contains the old path at C:\ drive. Fixing the program with the Registry Find and Replace takes only a few clicks: search for "C:\Programs" and replace it with "D:\Programs".

Why this feature stands apart compared with its competitors

• Can search with many search words at a time
• Can find registry items based on their last modification date
• Supports searching with wildcards, Perl Regular Expressions and Artificial Intelligence
• Safe to use, as the backup feature is activated by default

The Results

The results of the registry search are shown in a simple list form which also shows the Before and After status.

At the time you see this screen absolutely no changes are yet made to the registry. This allows you to verify that all the found items are valid and if the case arise remove them from the list. After this you can easily apply the Find and Replace procedure on them.

That's fine, but how is your product different than the others?
Your computer's registry based errors can be fixed. You'll be able to easily fix many kinds of registry problems by replacing the old data, for example file paths, with the new one.
