The Registry could have been designed to be a standard settings store but without the drawbacks of being monolithic, not human-readable, and being one giant point of failure.
- vitorgrs 6y agoThey are monolith for the OS, not for developers anymore if they are using appx/msix Win32 apps, it comes with virtualized registry by default. So every app has a different and isolated registry. There is also C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Packages\APPNAME\Settings Each app can use registry, and the registry will be isolated to settings.dat. (You can mount that on regedit and see that is just a usual registry hive)
