Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
Active Registry Monitor (ARM) is an utility designed for analysing the changes made
to Windows Registry - by making the "snapshots" of it and keeping them in the browsable database.
You can compare any two snapshots and get the list of keys/data which are new, deleted or just changed.
ARM can do comparing not only in the entire Regisrty, but also in any key of the Registry.
It is also possible to exclude any keys of the Registry from compare results.
Moreover, you can create undo/redo files (for example, to rollback the changes).
To view the current state of a key, or to modify it, you can use Jump to Regedit function.
Contents of any key can be exported to *.reg file.
Very useful for detecting trojan viruses and elimination some problems caused by software and
hardware install/uninstall.
Unlike Registry monitoring software (such as RegMon and Win-Expose Registry), and most uninstallers
(CleenSweep, Uninstall, etc.), ARM compares full copies of the Registry made at different times,
while the software mantioned above just monitors all accesses to the Registry in real time.
So, our method allows to track all the changes, and doesn't affect the system performance.
Here is a brief list of ART features:
- Scan different copies Registry into a special file and browse/search them "off-line"
- Scan the Registry on a remote computer
- Compare different copies of the Registry
- Compare individual branches of different copies of the Registry
- Undo and Redo Registry changes based on comparison results: directly from the program or by generating the REG-files
- Save any key of the Registry into the REG-file
- Fast search in Keys, Values and Data
- Bookmarks
- Opening selected key in the RegEdit
- Optional command-line interface for automated Registry scanning
- Convenient navigation between corresponding keys of different Registry copies and comparison results
- Adding comments to each copy of the Registry scanned
- Full insatll / uninstall support

Run "setup.exe". You'll need to select the target directory for the install.
If you want to install Active Registry Monitor without user intervention run
Active Registry Monitor Setup with the /s parameter (e.g. "c:\setup.exe /s"). This

special configuration file for silent setup: setup.ini. With this file, you
can customize the Active Registry Monitor installation parameters. For example:
1. "Install" parameters:
Service - Service and its related files will be installed
Manager - Manager and its related files will be installed
Documents - documentation (readme.txt, register.txt) will be installed
To specify a destination directory for Active Registry Monitor, you can supply the
parameter InstallDir
If you have the registration key-file for Active Registry Monitor, you can specify a
directory with this file in the parameter RegFileDir
2. "Misc" parameters:
Run - this parameter is used to launch an application or execute a batch
file after a successful install.
