## Registry Changes
|
|
|
|
Applications and System Components store and retrieve configuration data to modify Windows settings, so we can use the registry to change many settings in one place.
|
|
|
|
You can find information about the registry on [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Registry) and [Microsoft's Website](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/sysinfo/registry).
