Registry
This tab allows you to include or exclude specific branches of the Windows Registry. Not scanning all registry branches reduces the time for snapshot creation and provides, for example, the possibility to exclude all branches which are not save to be transported to other clients. The specifications defined in this tab are valid for all steps of the snapshot process.
The following registry branches can be specified:
Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
Scan the Classes (HKCR) Registry Branch | This branch includes all keys which are located under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT to be scanned if set to true, if set to false all these keys will be ignored. |
Scan the Microsoft (HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoft) Registry Branch | This branch scans all keys under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft branch if set to true, if set to false all these keys will be ignored. |
Scan All Branches Other than Classes and Microsoft | If set to true, this option scans all registry keys which are not included in any of the two previously mentioned groups, if set to false all these keys will be ignored. |
