Remote Registry Editor (Compact 2013)

  • [アーティクル]

3/26/2014

The Windows Embedded Compact 2013 Remote Registry Editor is installed with Remote Tools. You use it to remotely modify the registry on a Windows Embedded Compact-powered device from your development computer. By using the Remote Registry Editor, you can add, delete, and copy registry keys. You can also add, delete, modify and rename the values for registry entries, and export, import, search, or monitor the full registry. In the Remote Tools Shell window, Remote Registry Editor displays the top-level registry trees for the device to which the tool is connected.

You use Remote Registry Editor after you download a runtime image to your device. You use Remote Registry Editor to modify the registry on the device, but the changes persist only during the active session with the device. When you next download the OS image to the device, you will need to have either rebuilt the OS image with any desired registry values incorporated or edit the registry again. 

The following table shows some examples of the registry trees that Remote Registry Editor might display for a device.

Monitor Registry Changes

You can monitor the registry changes that you make to a Windows Embedded Compact-powered device by using Remote Registry Editor. When you monitor the registry, you can view the history of the registry changes that you make to the device from the point at which the current device connection was made or you can monitor the complete registry. By default, Remote Registry Editor monitors the previously viewed registry keys in the Registry node for your device, not the full registry.

To monitor changes to the registry

  1. In the left pane of the Remote Tools Shell window, click the History node for your device.

  2. Determine how you want to monitor the registry, either by the previously viewed registry keys or by the full registry, and do one of the following:

    1. To monitor changes to previously viewed registry keys in this session (the default setting), in the Monitoring Status pane, view the changes.
    2. To monitor the complete registry, in the Monitoring Status pane, click Enable Full Registry Monitoring. The entire registry of the device is now being monitored for any changes that you make.
      Any changes that you make to the device's registry will appear in the Remote Tools Shell window, in the Monitoring Status pane, under Key, Action, or Change.

  3. To stop monitoring the registry, in the Remote Tools Shell window, on the File menu, click Exit to close Remote Registry Editor.
