What is Regedit?

The Microsoft Registry Editor (regedit.exe) is a tool that grants users the ability to inspect, search, and modify the system registry, which houses critical information about how a computer operates. While Registry Editor provides access to these underlying system settings, directly altering the registry is not advised, as making incorrect changes can potentially compromise the stability and functionality of the operating system. However, there may be instances where a user, with the guidance of a technical expert, may need to utilize the Registry Editor to adjust specific system configurations
