Registry Search with Wildcard?

[linder]

Yes, that memory leak slows down the process. But it's down to nearly zero KB in the fixed version.

Could you please post two more example keys so I can test it?

My previous screenshot shows two similar keys.

Hmmm, on our test machines, it displays both (but with 4500+ keys only).

Does the re-compiled one work?

It takes a while to start (~30 seconds), but after the Do you really want to run this exe? dialog it's very fast.
Unfortunately, despite its speed, it doesn't find any keys at all

The start delay is caused by your protection software (it scans it for a virus) and has nothing to do with the executable. The executable is lauched AFTER the "Do you really want to run this exe" dialog

Wait, I'll check the scanning process again on a fresh Windows 7 machine...

Hello,

I have code-signed the executable to make your protection software happy

Could you please re-download it?

Does this work now?

Success!

1. Starts fast
2. Runs fast with no visible memory leak
3. Discovers all matched keys

Will that new search algorithm be incorporated into the next SB update?

Thank you for the good news !!!

Yes, it will be incorporated into the next SB update.
