BEFORE YOU START.

This type of text is available in the books ~ Internet and up to my commonsense most of you are already aware about at least one of these, assuming there is always first to something I did prepare for new ones about registry.



I am not expert in registry editing but I use to play with my registry to learn more, by applying tips found on books/Internet.


Yr comments /suggestions /Critics are welcome to make this place more better.
