Is there a way to collapse the registry view so each time I open it it starts at the top?

Each time you close it it writes whatever key to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\APPLETS\Regedit

LastKey

So no its not easy maybe only way would be a batch ran after you close it to write there.

Had just come across that PCmag thing myself and was goona add it. No thanks though to that. As they say, heavy handed approach.

How about to change regvalue mentioned above to root and then make it readonly with regedt32?

I agree. Favorites in Regedit is precious to use as a method to store key addresses.

Using the left arrow key on the keyboard is an easy and simple method without losing the ability with using Regedit favorites.

Hey thanks for the responses. I like the left arrow idea - works for me.

I'll stick to my little Jump2Reg proggy cause it stores favs and a lot more.

I'm just in there too much and don't need the bulk
