I just released this tool as companion tool to Registry Explorer.

Supports simple and RegEx searches of hives, looks for values with certain sizes, exporting value data and more.

Nice. )

Though it is .Net 😯 and on my XP fails with application not correctly intialized 0xc000007b.

Maybe you should put a note about the .Net version (and/or minimum OS version) needed and/or have it produce a more meaningful error.

Too bad you used the .Net approach ( , the tool does seem like very nice.

is your issue with .net that its a Microsoft thing?

there is nothing wrong with .net and now that .net is open source it should work as some point on Linux and Mac, especially the command line stuff. theres already core installers for both i believe, not to mention mono.

i wont ever use anything other than .net because you can actually create good UIs in .net. Have ytou ever seen a decent UI in Python or some other cross platform tool? Im not saying you cant do cross platform, but the performance and capabilities are horrible compared to what is available in .net

since my GUIs are .net, i write the back end processors in .net too. VMs work on just about every OS, so getting access to a Windows environment isnt a barrier.

the minimum version of .net for RECmd is 4.5.2 which does not support Windows XP (nor does microsoft)

Nahh, not at all connected with it's origin, it is just that I believe it to be an unprecedented amount of bloat.

I am pretty sure that it helps a lot developers like you in making their programs in an easier way, but usually .Net related tools tend to have issues with portability (many PE builds have not .Net and adding it is sometimes not enough as usually only a subset is added) and with different Windows OS versions.
I believe also that you need a PE 5.x (Windows 8 based) to be able to use the Microsoft WinPE-NetFX add-on
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh824926.aspx

the minimum version of .net for RECmd is 4.5.2 which does not support Windows XP (nor does microsoft)

I know, then - if I may - the PE should be targeted to MajorOperatingSystem 6 and not 4.

However I was only suggesting that you specified the pre-requisites for the tool on the related page. )
