reg-query: Display all values of a key.
$ reg query ${key_name}
try on your machine

The command "reg query ${key_name}" is used to query the Windows Registry for specific information about a registry key. Here's how to break down the command:

  • "reg" refers to the Windows Registry command-line tool used to interact with the registry.
  • "query" is the subcommand that specifies we want to retrieve information from the registry.
  • "${key_name}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual name of the registry key you want to query.

When you execute this command, it will search the registry for the specified key and display information about that key, such as the value, data type, and other attributes associated with it.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
