hivexget(1) Windows Registry hivexget(1) NAME hivexget - Get subkey from a Windows Registry binary "hive" file SYNOPSIS hivexget hivefile '\Path\To\SubKey' hivexget hivefile '\Path\To\SubKey' name NOTE This is a low-level tool. For a more convenient way to navigate the Win- dows Registry in Windows virtual machines, see virt-win-reg(1). For proper regedit formatting, use hivexregedit(1). DESCRIPTION This program navigates through a Windows Registry binary "hive" file and extracts either all the (key, value) data pairs stored in that subkey or just the single named data item. In the first form: hivexget hivefile '\Path\To\SubKey' "hivefile" is some Windows Registry binary hive, and "\Path\To\Subkey" is a path within that hive. NB the path is relative to the top of this hive, and is not the full path as you would use in Windows (eg. "HKEY_LOCAL_MA- CHINE\SYSTEM" is not a valid path). If the subkey exists, then the output lists all data pairs under this sub- key, in a format similar to "regedit" in Windows. In the second form: hivexget hivefile '\Path\To\SubKey' name "hivefile" and path are as above. "name" is the name of the value of in- terest (use "@" for the default value). The corresponding data item is printed "raw" (ie. no processing or escap- ing) except: 1. If it's a string we will convert it from Windows UTF-16 to UTF-8, if this conversion is possible. The string is printed with a single trailing newline. 2. If it's a multiple-string value, each string is printed on a separate line. 3. If it's a numeric value, it is printed as a decimal number.
