Hello. I would like to share an alternative to the default Registry Editor for the users on Windows 10 Anniversary Update and below. It is the ReactOS registry editor. You could use it if you like the address bar of the Windows 10 Creators Update's registry editor but are staying on lower versions to keep the Classic Theme working good. I have used it to modify registry values by myself and also to import them from an .REG file. Exporting also works. The icons are a bit weird but I'm sure that someone could modify it to use the default icons.
Here is what it looks like:
The installation instructions are simple:
1. Pull the regedit.exe from an ReactOS installation (I used 0.4.15 compiled by myself) - the exact build string for those curious is "20200807-0.4.15-dev-489-g75a0787.GNU_8.4.0"
2. Use something like Everything to find out all locations of the system regedit.exe
3. Replace the regedit.exe (MAKE BACKUPS!!!) with the ReactOS regedit.

UPDATE: Please make sure you use the ReactOS regedit that matches your architecture, otherwise you'll only be able to access the Wow64 registry (unless that's your intention)
