Anyone using a third-party Windows registry editor that they would recommend to others?

I work with the Windows registry editor (regedit.exe) on a near-daily basis, and occasionally find myself wishing it had more features.

For example, it'd be nice if it had:

  • a way to import and export favorites.
  • an advanced search feature that lists all the keys it found, rather than a simple Find feature. It would be great if there was a way to narrow the results as you type, but yes, I realize I'm probably asking for a lot.
  • a list of keys I recently accessed (history)

So essentially, I'm just looking for a reliable third-party tool that builds upon the existing regedit feature set. I'm interested in both free and commercial solutions.

Previous developer recommendations have led me to discover great tools like Notepad++ and RegexBuddy, so I'm really looking forward to your answers.
