NAME

6       regdiff - Diff program for Windows registry files
7

SYNOPSIS

9       regdiff [--help] [--backend=BACKEND] [--credentials=CREDENTIALS]
10               [location]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       regdiff compares two Windows registry files key by key and value by
14       value and generates a text file that contains the differences between
15       the two files.
16
17       A file generated by regdiff can later be applied to a registry file by
18       the regpatch utility.
19
20       regdiff and regpatch use the same file format as the regedit32.exe
21       utility from Windows.
