Emulate registry | EMULATEREGISTRY | Intercepts registry read operations so that the missing entries are filled in by the values in the "dxwnd.reg" file.
Override registry | OVERRIDEREGISTRY | Intercepts registry read operations so that the missing and existing entries are filled in by the values in the "dxwnd.reg" file.
Set KEY_WOW64_64KEY flag | WOW64REGISTRY | Sets the KEY_WOW64_64KEY value in the registry system calls so that they are forced to search in the native 64-bit section of the registry in 64-bit platforms.
Set KEY_WOW64_32KEY flag | WOW32REGISTRY | Sets the KEY_WOW64_32KEY value in the registry system calls so that they are forced to search in the 32-bit section of the registry in 64-bit platforms.

This area allows you to record virtual registry keys for the hooked program, in a text format similar (but not identical) to the one used by registry tools like regedit or regwin32. If the "Emulate registry" flag is set, these keys/values will be read whenever they can't be retrieved from the actual registry. If the "Override registry" flag is set, these values will be used even if corresponding values already exist in the actual registry.

NOTE: In the virtual registry text, DxWnd allows the usage of these special tokens:

\{path} that is replaced with the folder where the target program is located.

\{work} that is replaced with the current program execution folder.

It should be noted that in most cases, the two tokens produce the same result unless the target program is run from a different folder or changes its working folder dynamically. This makes it possible to write relocatable registry scripts that will work no matter where the program is installed.

IMPORTANT NOTE: DxWnd gets the virtual registry from the "dxwnd.ini" file, so you must save these settings before any changes can take effect.

If you save a configuration with any text in the Virtual registry, the "Main" tab will add an icon with the appearance of a stack of blue cubes to the immediate right of the "Launch:" field:
