reg-import: Import all keys, subkeys and values from a file.
$ reg import ${path\to\file-reg}
try on your machine

The command "reg import ${path\to\file-reg}" is used to import a registry file in the Windows operating system.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

  • "reg" refers to the Windows Registry Editor command-line tool.

  • "import" is the action being performed, indicating that the contents of the specified registry file should be imported into the Windows Registry.

  • "${path\to\file-reg}" is the placeholder for the actual file path and name of the registry file that you want to import. You need to replace this placeholder with the actual path to the registry file on your system.

To use this command, you would open a command prompt or PowerShell window and type "reg import ${path\to\file-reg}", making sure to replace the placeholder with the appropriate file path. Press Enter or Return, and the contents of the specified registry file will be imported into the Windows Registry.
