If you do this, you I get irreversible disk corruption in the VM. C tries to stop you from doing this, but doesn't catch all cases. Modifying the Windows Registry is an inherently risky operation. The format is deliberately obscure and undocumented, and Registry changes can leave the system unbootable. Therefore when using the C<--merge> option, make sure you have a reliable backup first. =head1 DESCRIPTION This program can export and merge Windows Registry entries from a Windows guest. The first parameter is the libvirt guest name or the raw disk image of a Windows guest. If C<--merge> is I specified, then the chosen registry key is displayed/exported (recursively). For example: $ virt-win-reg Windows7 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft' You can also display single values from within registry keys, for example: $ cvkey='HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion' $ virt-win-reg Windows7 $cvkey ProductName Windows 7 Enterprise With C<--merge>, you can merge a textual regedit file into the Windows Registry: $ virt-win-reg --merge Windows7 changes.reg =head2 SUPPORTED SYSTEMS The program currently supports Windows NT-derived guests starting with Windows XP through to at least Windows 7. Registry support is done for C, C, C, C and C. You can use C as a shorthand for C, and C for C. C and C are B supported at this time. =head2 NOTE This program is only meant for simple access to the registry. If you want to do complicated things with the registry, we suggest you download the Registry hive files from the guest using L or L and access them locally, eg. using L, L or L. =head2 ENCODING C expects that regedit files have already been reencoded in the local encoding. Usually on Linux hosts, this means UTF-8 with Unix-style line endings. Since Windows regedit files are often in UTF-16LE with Windows-style line endings, you may need to reencode the whole file before or after processing. To reencode a file from Windows format to Linux (before processing it with the C<--merge> option), you would do something like this: iconv -f utf-16le -t utf-8 < win.reg | dos2unix > linux.reg To go in the opposite direction, after exporting and before sending the file to a Windows user, do something like this: unix2dos linux.reg | iconv -f utf-8 -t utf-16le > win.reg For more information about encoding, see L. If you are unsure about the current encoding, use the L command. Recent versions of Windows regedit.exe produce a UTF-16LE file with Windows-style (CRLF) line endings, like this: $ file software.reg software.reg: Little-endian UTF-16 Unicode text, with very long lines, with CRLF line terminators This file would need conversion before you could C<--merge> it. =head2 SHELL QUOTING Be careful when passing parameters containing C<\> (backslash) in the shell. Usually you will have to use 'single quotes' or double backslashes (but not both) to protect them from the shell. Paths and value names are case-insensitive. =head2 CurrentControlSet etc. Registry keys like C don't really exist in the Windows Registry at the level of the hive file, and therefore you cannot modify these. Replace this with C, and similarly for other C keys. =head1 OPTIONS =over 4 =cut my $help; =item B<--help> Display brief help. =cut my $version; =item B<--version> Display version number and exit. =cut my $debug; =item B<--debug> Enable debugging messages. =cut my $uri; =item B<--connect URI> | B<-c URI> If using libvirt, connect to the given I. If omitted, then we connect to the default libvirt hypervisor. If you specify guest block devices directly, then libvirt is not used at all. =cut my $merge; =item B<--merge> In merge mode, this merges a textual regedit file into the Windows Registry of the virtual machine. If this flag is I given then virt-win-reg displays or exports Registry entries instead. Note that C<--merge> is I to use on live virtual machines, and will result in disk corruption. However exporting (without this flag) is always safe. =cut my $encoding; =item B<--encoding> UTF-16LE|ASCII When merging (only), you may need to specify the encoding for strings to be used in the hive file. This is explained in detail in L. The default is to use UTF-16LE, which should work with recent versions of Windows. =back =cut GetOptions ("help|?" => \$help, "version" => \$version, "connect|c=s" => \$uri, "debug|d" => \$debug, "merge" => \$merge, "encoding=s" => \$encoding, ) or pod2usage (2); pod2usage (1) if $help; if ($version) { my $g = Sys::Guestfs->new (); my %h = $g->version (); print "$h{major}.$h{minor}.$h{release}$h{extra}\n"; exit } # virt-win-reg only takes a single disk image ... die __"no libvirt domain name or disk image given\n" if @ARGV == 0; my $domname_or_image = shift @ARGV; warn "launching libguestfs ..." if $debug; my @lib_args = ([$domname_or_image]); push @lib_args, address => $uri if $uri; push @lib_args, rw => 1 if $merge; my $g = open_guest (@lib_args); $g->launch (); warn "inspecting guest ..." if $debug; # List of possible filesystems. my @partitions = get_partitions ($g); # Now query each one to build up a picture of what's in it. my %fses = inspect_all_partitions ($g, \@partitions, use_windows_registry => 0); my $oses = inspect_operating_systems ($g, \%fses); my @roots = keys %$oses; die __"no root device found in this operating system image" if @roots == 0; die __"multiboot operating systems are not supported by virt-win-reg" if @roots > 1; my $root_dev = $roots[0]; my $os = $oses->{$root_dev}; my $ro = $merge ? 0 : 1; mount_operating_system ($g, $os, $ro); # Create a working directory to store the downloaded registry files. my $tmpdir = tempdir (CLEANUP => 1); # Only used when merging to map downloaded hive names to hive handles. my %hives; if (!$merge) { # Export mode. die __"expecting 1 or 2 more parameters, subkey path and optionally the value to export\n" if @ARGV < 1 || @ARGV > 2; my $path = shift @ARGV; my $name = shift @ARGV; # or undef # Map this to the hive name.
