    Registry data is the information the operating system (Windows, OS X, Linux etc) needs to operate.

    Be very, very careful when messing with it. You can easily break the system causing you to rebuild the OS from scratch (and lose everything you've saved in the process).

    Always create restore points, which you should have been doing anyway.
