The Creators Update (1703) to Windows 10 includes a little-publicized but very welcome improvement. The Registry Editor now has two extra Explorer-like features, and one new advanced feature.
An address bar (replacing the status bar) shows the current full path, and allows copying. A path can be typed or pasted to navigate quickly, which will be excellent for people following Internet guides.
Second, there's now a Favorites feature. A key can be added to the favorites list, where it shows up under the Favorites menu. These locations can be managed with Favorites | Remove Favorite.
It also introduces the View | Display Binary Data option. Clicking that menu item opens the current value's data as the raw bytes. Relatedly, there's a new Modify Binary Data entry on the value context menu that allows editing that data, like the binary data editor from the past, but with more convenient selection ability.
