Nefarius.Utilities.Registry

This is a fork of the fantastic Registry Export File (.reg) Parser project by Henryk Filipowicz.

A fast parser for Registry Export (.reg) Files.

Changes of this fork

• Modernized code and style to latest C# language version
• Settled on .NET 7 to benefit from .NET regular expression source generators
• RegFile class can now parse from streams in addition to file paths
• Added RegValueType for REG_DWORD, REG_SZ, ... as a SmartEnum
• Migrated strings to better suited types where applicable
• Migrated string processing to using Spans where applicable
• Greatly improved parsing speed and reduced memory footprint
• Added type-specific RegValue classes with pre-parsed Value property in the expected managed type (string, byte[], etc.)
