Simplest Code to Enumerate Entire Registry
I don't know if I posted a topic like this before but I decided to work on my registry error fixer again after seeing how much I liked CCleaner (CCleaner is made with VB, too). Is there a simple code to scan the entire registry for some strings, dwords, binaries, etc.? I originally used http://freevbcode.com/ShowCode.Asp?ID=3175 but it's too long for me and know there has too be a much shorter code to use. That code also didn't scan the entire registry because it couldn't find my test value. Sorry, I'm really picky about the size of my codes.
Re: Simplest Code to Enumerate Entire Registry
Just do a search here (http://www.vbforums.com/search.php?) that question has already been answered and there is code available.
I haven't tested the code you already have (just looked at it), but I doubt you will find anything shorter. And if you are making an registry mechanic type application, I doubt it will be good without at least a few thousands of lines of code.

I'm not very good with searching for stuff. What should I search for? "enumerate registry"?

The first link is what I needed but how do I search for strings dwords, etc.?

Well, it's closer to what I want but I'm trying to find something that will search the entire registry.

abazabam,
Look at my signature for Free VB Source Code You will find code there for enumerating the registry. You will need to write some code for your specific purpose but you can start there.
Re: Simplest Code to Enumerate Entire Registry
Can you please give me the link?
Re: Simplest Code to Enumerate Entire Registry
It's in my signature It cannot be any simpler to get to. Click on Free VB Source Code then go to Enumerate thru the Registry.
This seem pretty straight forward enough...
