    How find something in the Registry if I know the path?


    Using the Find option in regedit, I was (finally) able to find what I was looking for in the Registry. Now that I've found it - and knowing the path, can I find it next time by keying in the path? I've tried different key word combinations and a partial path using the Find function. However, for some reason, my tries haven't been able to find this folder. I'm stymied!!! The actual path is:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Macrium\reflect\Recent Folders\Image

    I tried keying in this path, but it doesn't find it.

    Thank you.....

    :)

    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    You can perform system restore and check if it helps:

    I suggest you to perform system restore and select a date prior to the changes which was done with the registry values and check if the issue gets fixed.

    To perform System restore:

    • Press Windows key + X, select
      System.
    • In the left pane, click on System Protection.
    • Select the option to system restore
      > next. It will show all restore points already created.
    • Select the date prior to the date on which you have made the registry changes.
