[Bug 60031] New: regedit: Add an address bar for registry key navigation.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60031 Bug ID: 60031 Summary: regedit: Add an address bar for registry key navigation. Product: Wine Version: 11.13 Hardware: Other OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: programs Assignee: wine-bugs@list.winehq.org Reporter: aros@gmx.com Target Milestone: --- Distribution: --- Created attachment 81464 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=81464 The patch to implement the feature This patch adds an address bar to regedit, similar to the one available in modern versions of Windows. The address bar always reflects the currently selected registry key and allows direct keyboard navigation. Implemented behavior: - Add an edit control below the menu bar displaying the current registry location. - Display the registry root as "Computer". - Display selected keys as: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\... - Update the address bar whenever the tree selection changes. - Accept both abbreviated and canonical root key names when navigating, for example: HKLM\Software HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software - Optionally accept the "Computer\" prefix, which is ignored during path parsing. - Path matching is case-insensitive. - Only '\' is accepted as a path separator. - Pressing Enter navigates to the specified key and transfers keyboard focus to the registry tree. - Invalid paths restore the currently selected registry path. - Ctrl+L focuses the address bar and selects its contents. The address bar always reflects the current selection. Any text entered by the user is discarded when the selection changes elsewhere in the UI, matching Windows behavior. ------------------------------------------ I tried to clone Wine's git on your Gitlab server but apparently I need some extra permissions and I just don't want to bother: ``` Limit reached You cannot create projects in your personal namespace.

Which Windows release has this? I don't see it on Win 11.
An address bar allowing you to view, copy, and paste registry paths was added to regedit in Windows 10 (starting with build 14942, as part of the Creators Update) and is included in all versions of Windows 11. Here's a screenshot from Windows 11. In fact this is not just a simple edit field, it also supports autocomplete but it's gonna be an extra monumental patch, so it would be great to first get the edit field patch approved/merged. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
