When you export a registry (.reg) file, you are copying a portion of your program’s registry data to a registry file.

To export a registry file:

1. In the View List under System Configuration, click Registry.
2. In the Destination computer’s Registry view pane, right-click the registry entry that you want to export and click either Export REG File or Export Selected Branch.
Export REG File exports the entire component’s registry data.
Export Selected Branch exports only the current registry key and any subkeys.
