Favourites
Favourites give you one-click access to the keys you use most.
Add A Favourite
- Navigate to the key you want to remember.
- Open the Favourites menu and choose Add.
- Confirm or adjust the name. The favourite is added to the bottom of the Favourites menu.
Figure: The Favourites menu with the frequently used keys submenu.
Selecting a favourite from the menu jumps straight to that key. A favourite can point to a key, or to a specific value within a key.
Frequently Used Keys
O&O RegEditor also provides a built-in frequently used keys submenu in the Favourites menu. It groups commonly needed registry locations so you can reach them without typing a path.
Manage Favourites
Choose Favourites > Manage... to open the Manage Favourites dialog.
Figure: The Manage Favourites dialog.
In this dialog you can:
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Select | Select one or several favourites (multi-selection is supported). |
| Move Up / Move Down | Reorder a selected favourite. The menu follows the new order. |
| Remove | Delete the selected favourites. |
| Export | Export the selected favourites' keys to a .reg file. |
| Print the selected favourites' keys. |
Move Up and Move Down are available when exactly one favourite is selected; Export, Print, and Remove work on any number of selected favourites.
Selecting several favourites and choosing Export writes all of their key branches into a single .reg file — a quick way to back up a set of related keys.
