SpeedUpMyPC Terms Explained

Registry Settings

Question: What are registry settings?
Answer: Registry settings are settings stored in the Windows registry. The registry is a large database containing thousands of different settings used by Windows, as well as by installed applications. To edit the registry, you can use the tool regedit, which is a part of Windows. Unless you know what you are doing, you should not attempt to edit the registry directly, but, instead, use tweaking tools like SpeedUpMyPC to change specific systems settings.
