8 Tools to Track Registry and File Changes by installing a software

1.  Regshot unicode Regshot is a long running utility that can quickly take a before and after snapshot of the system registry. Also in the more recent unicode version it’s gained the ability to monitor for file changes using CRC32 and MD5 file checksums although this function is turned off by default and you have to go to File -> Options -> Common Options -> and tick “Check files in the specified folders” to enable it. Only the Windows folder is entered into the list of watched folders so you have to enter any others yourself through the Folders tab. This version also added the Connect to remote registry option. Regshot is very much a “hands on” utility and is more for experienced or advanced users to quickly check for system changes between two different points in time. Simply create the 1st shot, install the software or run the program you want to watch, and then press 2nd shot. After comparing the differences in the 1st and 2nd shots, it will open an HTML log ...
