Well, I was wondering if there was a way to find out what all is changed in your registry when you install a program. For example... I install a game, after the instalation, I want to find out what all was added to the registry, what all was changed, ect.. Is there a way to do that?

The only way I know of to track registry changes is to install a system monitor program that tracks and records all changes to a system.

The Install Monitor function of V-Com System Suite is one such utility.

Other than monitor software, your only option would be to backup the registry files and manually compare the new version to the old.

tedious and lot's of work, but you could export the registry befor installation and after the installation and then compare the two files
