EZ Reg Editor

With the help of EZ Reg Editor you can seamlessly access the Windows registry to manage keys. This is an intuitive software application that comes bundled only with a few standard options.
Nevertheless, it shouldn't be handled by inexperienced users, since there's a high risk of accidentally changing system files which are vital for the OS to work.

Simple setup and interface

Installing EZ Reg Editor is a fast and simple job that shouldn't give you any trouble. It's wrapped in a plain-looking interface represented by a small frame that shows all options available.

View, edit and scan the registry

By default, the app loads several registry hives, allowing you to easily access them to find and edit keys. You can the full paths of each hive, along with the value types and sizes, enter new strings, numerical and binary values, create new keys, as well as delete existing values or keys.
The software application also puts a search function at your disposal, enabling you to search for data within hives, keys, values, and binary code. Unfortunately, it doesn't implement an option for restoring all settings to their factory configuration.

Evaluation and conclusion

We haven't come across any stability issues throughout our evaluation, thanks to the fact that the program didn't hang, crash or prompt error dialogs. It carried out search jobs rapidly while remaining light on CPU and RAM consumption, so it didn't hamper system performance.
On the other hand, it comes packed with just a couple of options that may not satisfy the requirements of expert users looking for additional configuration settings. We must also keep in mind that EZ Reg Editor hasn't been updated for a long time. Otherwise, it gets the job done.
