Microsoft built a native WinUI Registry Editor that makes Windows 11’s regedit look like Windows 95, and I tried it
Windows Latest found a native WinUI 3 version of Registry Editor in Microsoft’s open-source Microsoft.UI.Reactor repository, and I compiled it and ran it on my Windows 11 PC. It actually reads the real Windows Registry and makes regedit.exe look like a relic.

Microsoft has only mentioned “a registry editor” in passing, in an October developer blog post that promised a tour of its sample apps “next month.” The tour hasn’t happened yet, which makes this the first look at the app running on a PC. It’s a developer sample, though, and Microsoft hasn’t announced plans to replace Registry Editor in Windows 11.
