NAME

       regdiff - Diff program for Windows registry files

SYNOPSIS

       regdiff [--help] [--backend=BACKEND] [--credentials=CREDENTIALS] [location]

DESCRIPTION

       regdiff compares two Windows registry files key by key and value by value and generates a
       text file that contains the differences between the two files.

       A file generated by regdiff can later be applied to a registry file by the regpatch
       utility.

       regdiff and regpatch use the same file format as the regedit32.exe utility from Windows.

OPTIONS

       --help
           Show list of available options.

       --backend BACKEND
           Name of backend to load. Possible values are: creg, regf, dir and rpc. The default is
           dir.

           This argument can be specified twice: once for the first registry file and once for
           the second.

       --credentials=CREDENTIALS
           Credentials to use, if any. Password should be separated from user name by a percent
           sign.

           This argument can be specified twice: once for the first registry file and once for
           the second.
