I just want to interrupt it, not make it pause ... you know, like DIR, PDIR, FFIND. It'd be useful especially considering that recursion is the default.
v:\> timer & regdir /v /d hklm | ffind /k /v /m /t"JPSoft" & timer
Timer 1 on: 13:52:05
PeriodShortcut : REG_DWORD : 1
Timer 1 off: 13:58:52 Elapsed: 0:06:47.086
1. It didn't do what I asked it to do!
2. the time!!! ... the TCC running REGDIR showed 0 CPU for most of those 6+ minutes. In sharp contrast, my (ancient) REGFIND.EXE can go through HKLM, looking for "PeriodShortcut" (finding 536 of them) in about 11 seconds.
Huh? You still get a 1-second per page delay. At that rate it would days to output all of HKLM.PERHAPS an acceptable workaround?
Use paging with one second: /P1 ...
regdir /p1 /v /d hklm | grep .
regdir /v /d hklm | grep .
Yup! The output ofYou're probably right about the binary data. There are many REG_BINARY values (notably in HKLM\HARDWARE) with tens (maybe hundreds) of thousands of bytes of data.
regdir /v /d HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\ACPI\DSDT\DELL__\CBX3___\01072009
Oh, ok - my idea is garbage then, sorry.Huh? You still get a 1-second per page delay. At that rate it would days to output all of HKLM.
One odd thing ... if I do
v:\> ffind /k /v /m /t"com.jpsoft" microsoft.key
C:\ProgramData\regid.2002-09.com.jpsoft\ : REG_SZ : 1

What is a better way to search the registry for strings (in keys, values, and data) with TCC?
v:\> dir /s c:\ | ffind /vkmt"D4373260-1185-49AC-993B-A31209FBD6CC"
