Favourites

Favourites give you one-click access to the keys you use most.

Add A Favourite

  1. Navigate to the key you want to remember.
  2. Open the Favourites menu and choose Add.
  3. Confirm or adjust the name. The favourite is added to the bottom of the Favourites menu.

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.

The Manage Favourites dialog

Figure: The Manage Favourites dialog.

In this dialog you can:

Move Up / Move DownReorder a selected favourite. The menu follows the new order.
RemoveDelete the selected favourites.
ExportExport the selected favourites' keys to a .reg file.
PrintPrint 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.

Export multiple branches at once

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.
