FAQ:

Listed below are some common questions and answers to user questions regarding Windows CE Registry

  • Q. What happens if I remove a vital registry entry
  • Q. How do I apply registry changes to my device

A. What happens if I remove a vital registry entry
It is only recommended that advanced users edit the system registry. However, Windows CE will not allow you to delete an entry that it stored in ROM. Users may find that if they remove a required entry. The associated files or application may not function correctly. In this event you will need to reinstall the program.

A. How do I apply registry changes to my device
After tweaking the CE registry. Save all work and close all active applications. Turn off the device and press the reset button to invoke a device soft reset. Any data that has not been saved will be lost once the device is reset. If you do not close all open applications, you may be presented with a active memory error when the device attempts to restart. These errors are normally fatal and will result in the loss of all data stored in RAM. This error will not affect the data in ROM.

More Info:

The registry hive is the backbone of any Windows CE, or indeed Windows Operating System. The registry is usually the domain of the power user, however with Windows CE and some of its more rudimentary limitations imposed both by Microsoft and OEMs many users may find that in order to get what they want from their Handheld PC they need to investigate their problem through the registry.
The Windows CE registry is a hierarchically organised repository for system, driver and application settings. While it can be intimidating the registry is in reality very simple and for the cautious unremarkable. Windows CE's registry implementation, known as 'PegReg' is very similar to the structure of any other Microsoft Win32 desktop operating system.

Unlike its main stream counterparts, Microsoft did not intend for end users to gain open access to the CE registry. The development ethos for Mobile devices was to allow the OEM to make the choices and to write the software to allow customisation at the user level. Wahoo kickr core software mac os. It wasn't until the consumer release of Windows CE 2.11, Handheld PC Professional that Microsoft themselves released a client side registry editor.

For more information on obtaining a registry editor see CESD-S-0082.

The system registry stores all user specific information, and all variable data related to application software installed on the device such as desktop wallpaper, the Internet home page address and so on.

As a rule. The Windows CE registry - as is similar to Microsoft desktop operating systems - is sub divided off of the Hive root element into four primary classes. The classes represent the first tier of organisation for the data stored within the labyrinth which forms the overall registry. The 4 primary areas of the Windows CE registry are:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT

The Classes_Root holds information on the files that CE can open or execute and what it should do when the user attempts to open one. It also contains an index of all registered Windows Classes (used throughout the registry to store application calls). Examples of this are:

  • .gif (Lossless Image File)
  • .jpg (Lossy Image File)
  • .exe (Executive Program File)
  • {000214A0-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} (The Class containing the data for all visual references to 'My Handheld PC')

HKEY_CURRENT_USER

Startwin Exe Windows Ce

Current_User contains all user information and user settings for specific applications. Your personal settings for communications, the CE environment and applications like Pocket Word.
As an example HKCU contains the information on your ActiveSync partnerships which are specific to you as a user

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

Local_Machine is the information store for all device specific information, such as hardware, drivers and the running parameters for the global level settings for software that you have installed (Don't get muddled up between Local_Machine and Current_User).
In similar kind to the HKCU example above, the HKLM key stores the information required by ActiveSync to assess what types of data the device is able to support Synchronisation of (e-mail, databases, PIM, files etc.)

HKEY_USERS

Users is not active under most consumer Windows CE devices. It is used to specify multiple users and user configurations for a device. Inactive users will have their HKCU data stored here until they log-in, at which time it is swapped into the HKCU key. In general it will only contain data when used in conjunction with a corporate network for synchronisation and administrative purposes.

N.B. the 'H' in HKEY stands for 'Hive'
