CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Though it isn't information-rich, this free utility notes registry changes in real-time, but it's definitely not for novices.
RegMon requires no installation and launches in a plain, yet clear-cut and neatly designed interface that displays registry changes. The program effectively monitors and displays registry changes--including the time, process, request, path, and result (Success or Not Found). For better analysis and record-keeping purposes, you can easily save the log as a text file. You can also include or exclude keys in monitoring for a more accurate result, or simply highlight monitored registry keys. RegMon also has quick one-click access to Windows built-in Registry Editor to easily open entries on the list.
This application, though relatively easy to use, may still overwhelm first-time users or novices because of insufficient information regarding the monitored changes. Users familiar with registry entries and modifications are sure to appreciate this freeware.
Publisher's description
From Microsoft :Regmon is a registry monitoring utility that will show you which applications are accessing your Registry, which keys they are accessing, and the Registry data that they are reading and writing - all in real-time. This advanced utility takes you one step beyond what static Registry tools can do, to let you see and understand exactly how programs use the Registry. With static tools you might be able to see what Registry values and keys changed. With Regmon you'll see how the values and keys changed. Regmon Enterprise Edition, the commercial version of Regmon available from Winternals Software, extends the functionality of Regmon with several powerful features, including the ability to monitor remote systems and save output to a log file as the output generates.
Version 7.04 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.

Version: RegMon 7.04
"simple little program for checking registry access, without annoying extras."
Pros: It is very easy to use, as there isnt that much to setup to get it running.
On the other hand, you can filter your view so you only get the reg access you like. For me thats exatly what I was looking for. Then you dont need to install it either. nice 700k program!
