RegDmp Syntax
regdmp [{-m \\ComputerName | -h HiveFile HiveRoot | -w Win95Directory}] [-i n] [-o OutputWidth] [-s] [RegistryPath]
Where:
- -m \\ComputerName
- specifies a remote Windows 2000 computer (machine) whose registry is to be manipulated.
- -h HiveFile HiveRoot
- specifies a local hive to manipulate.
- -w Win95Directory
- specifies the paths to Windows 95 system.dat and user.dat files.
- -i n
- specifies the display indentation multiple. Default is 4.
- -o OutputWidth
- specifies how wide the output is to be. By default OutputWidth is set to the width of the console window, if standard output (STDOUT) has not been redirected to a file. In the latter case, an OutputWidth of 240 is used.
- -s
- specifies summary output, which includes value names, types and first line of data.
- [RegistryPath]
- specifies the point in the registry from which to start dumping. All entries below this point in the registry hierarchy are also dumped. If no path is specified, RegDmp dumps the entire registry, which can produce very lengthy output.
If the path contains spaces, it must be surrounded by quotations marks:
"Registry Path With Spaces"
When specifying a registry path, either on the command line or in an input file, the following prefix strings can be used:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
HKEY_USERS
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
USER:
Each of these strings can stand alone as the key name or be followed a BACKSLASH and a subkey path.
