PS3 Registry (xRegistry.sys) Editor Released

[Simon66]

Stoker25 has been hard at work, figuring out the PS3 registry format, and has released a number of versions of his editor, and now that it is up to v0.7, I think it should be mention on the front page here.

stoker25 has released a registry editor for the registry file on your PS3. The registry file (xRegistry.sys) is located in dev_flash2/etc/ and a backup located in dev_flash/etc/backup. It handles such “important things like debug mode switches and bluray/dvd region, along with your PSN login details (unencrypted!) and other little tidbits.” The editor is still a work in progress, but you can download his source code and binaries below.

Attached is his current version, but please visit above links for the latest news, as it is always unfolding, and if you have ideas or can help to improve this, please join the "development" thread below:

We know that already, since...

1. It seems he developed it right here on PSX-Scene in a thread.
2. You are not the first one to bring this up.

You know I thought I read it before. But with all the news everyday one tends to forget!

I merged all the similar threads together, and edit the OP first post a bit to make it better, and moved it to the front page.

Many thanks to stoker25 for his hard work, and I am looking forward to more development.

just want to remind users to make a backup of their xRegistry.sys before they use this, it's not final yet (as you can see by the version), so there may be bugs. AFAIK the registry can be remade if it becomes corrupted, but not with the original values. think of the registry as IDSTORAGE.
