The Registry object provides access to the Windows registry. The registry is a
form of database on Windows devices which holds the device configuration. The
registry has a hierarchical structure. The “keys” are similar to file folders and the
“values” inside a key are similar to files in a folder.
For a better understanding of the Windows registry, you can search for
information at msdn.microsoft.com with the keywords “using registry ce”.

Several methods require a “fully qualified” value name which contains the full key
hierarchy, begins with a “root” key, and ends with the value name. This fully
qualified value name is similar to a file name with the full path. The Registry
object is a property of the OS object; OS.Registry.

WARNING: Altering the registry can make your device unusable. Be sure you

understand the effect of changing values.
