The registery is much easier to break, much harder to debug and much harder to fix, UNIX config is more human-friendly, I’ll never mess with the registery again
Also add that registry exponantionally growing over time bad documented and not easy way to clean it up and thus as time going windows start booting up longer and longer
In theory having a database of configuration settings isn’t a horrible idea.
But the execution was terrible.
The technology behind the registry is fine (which is what I think @VinesNFluff meant)
But it’s execution in Windows was ass
In theory, a configuration manager with DB-like abilities (to maintain relationships, schematic integrity, and to abstract the file storage details), isn’t a bad idea
But the registry as it is today is pure pain
