Registry Keys

The Registry Keys section allows you to enable the Windows Inventory Analyzer to scan the registry for specific keys and report their values.

NOTE: The Registry Keys options are applicable only for Windows computers. When auditing Linux and Mac computers, these options are ignored.

All the registry key fields available in this section are configured by the Alloy Discovery administrator (for details, see Configuring registry key fields) and automatically enabled in all audit profiles. You can view the details of a registry key field, disable the capture of a registry key, or re-enable disabled capture.

To view the details of a registry key field:

To disable the capture of a registry key:

  • Clear the check box for the registry key in the Include column.

To re-enable the capture of a registry key:

  • Select the check box for the registry key in the Include column.

NOTE: By default, registry key fields are not included in any grid views for Computers. To show the column in a particular view you should modify the view configuration and add registry key fields as needed.
