RegEdit broken, and an alternative

Post by HansV »

Many users have reported that RegEdit hangs in Windows 10 since the 1511 update in the following situation:
- You search for a keyword, and it is not found, or after the last instance has been found.

I'm now using the free alternative O&O RegEditor - see here
Best wishes,
Hans

Does that work in Win 7 also?
