What is a REG file?

Developed by Microsoft, the REG extension refers to a registry file used by the Windows operating system. The format belongs to the system files and is used for repairing the Registry. Users can also create custom REGs to alter specific parts of the OS.
The Windows Registry is a storehouse comprising a database of settings, configurations, and other options for the OS and the installed applications. The extension is text-based and viewable in text editors, but unless you know what you are doing, you must now tweak them. These are easily exportable and sharable with other users to allow them to make the same changes.
