Description-en: Windows registry FUSE filesystem
Winregfs is a FUSE-based filesystem driver that enables accessing of Windows
registry hive files as ordinary filesystems. Registry hive file editing can
be performed with ordinary shell scripts and command-line tools once mounted.
.
fsck.winregfs scans a Windows registry hive file for problems that indicate
the hive has been damaged by hardware or software issues, reading recursively
the key and value data structures in the registry hive.
.
This package provides mount.winregfs and fsck.winregfs commands.
Winregfs is useful for pentesters, ethical hackers and forensics experts.
