Normally double clicking on a .reg file will add its contents to the registry. If not, there are other ways, including re-enabling that functionality.

by Leo A. Notenboom, © 2007

I'm trying to register a software program. The company sent me a regkey.reg file that when clicked on creates a registry item that tells the program that it's a registered application.

When I click on the regkey.reg file, it doesn't run, instead the file opens in notepad.

How do I get my software registered.

There are a few ways to accomplish this, including making the '.reg'extension do the right thing. (Though we may elect not to, for security reasonsas we'll see in a minute.)

I also want to clear up a confusion that some readers may have - softwareregistration and 'the registry' are two different things.

'The registry' is just a database of information that Windows keeps. I'msure you've heard it mentioned a time or two already. Applications can keep allsorts of information in the system registry - everything from where theapplication components live, to what your most recently viewed documents havebeen, to what color scheme you like to use.

X2 is a 2003 American superhero film based on the X-Men superhero team appearing in. X2 was released on DVD in widescreen and full frame formats in 2003. The two-disc DVD includes over three hours of special features. X men 2 full movie.

Like I said, it's a general purpose data storage location.

'Registering' your software is something else. This type of registration issimply contacting the manufacturer of the software and letting them know thatyou have their software. In many cases they then respond with some kind ofinformation that legitimizes your installation of their software - oftenenabling features, or turning off 'trial' mode.

Things get confusing because of how this is remembered: it's placed in thesystem database of information. Yes, your software registration information canbe kept in the system registry. The fact that the two words are similar isquite coincidental.

One way that information can be placed into the registry is through textfiles formatted a particular way, ending with the extension '.reg'. (This'.reg' stands for 'registry', as in the system registry.) On most machines whenyou double click on a '.reg' file, the information in it is entered into thesystem registry, usually after asking if that's what you want to do.

It's also one unsophisticated way for hackers to mess up your system. Youmight well see spam with '.reg' files attached. If you were to double click onone of those, you would be letting the spammer put things into your systemregistry - most definitely not a good idea.

'Personally, I kind of like having notepad open up .regfiles, so I can explicitly see what's in them..'

The safe way to install a '.reg' file is as follows:

  • Click on Start and then Run..

  • Type in regedit, and then press OK

  • In regedit, click on File, and thenImport

  • Enter the filename or otherwise locate the '.reg' file you want to enter,and press OK

  • The contents of that '.reg' file will be entered into the registry.

Personally, I kind of like having notepad open up .reg files, so I canexplicitly see what's in them, and decide whether or not I want to installthem. If I decide I do, then the above steps work well.

If you'd rather make the double click action work to actually directlyinstall the '.reg' file:

  • Right click on the '.reg' file in Windows Explorer

  • Click on Open With..

  • Click on Registry Editor, if it's in the list, or use theBrowse button to locate regedit.exe (typically inC:Windows)

  • Make sure that Always use the selected program to open this kind offile is checked

  • Click OK

Now, if you double click on your '.reg' file, you'll be prompted to confirmthat you want to add the information in it into the registry. ClickOK on that, and you're done.

I'm fairly sure you can just just right-click on the .reg file and select 'Merge' from the context menu. Saves going into regedit. (You can definitely do this in XP; I'm not sure about earlier versions of Windows.)

This was a very good trick. The problem topic discussed was very helpful for me. Computer is such a field where we see several things in front of us in screen but never give importance to explore them.
The sites like this one can really do some concrete lighting on the vasting of the knowledge on the unexplored topics..

But what if you have two scenarios, such as..?
1. Open With > Open With and nothing is there to use
or
2. the Merge command is absent

The only option for me is to open regedit and import the new entry. I'd like to return to its original setup.
