Registry Files

/windows/system.dat
/windows/user.dat
/windows/win.ini

The Registry consists of two local files, System.dat and User.dat. 
System.dat contains information on
software and hardware settings and is located in the Windows folder. 
User.dat contains user-specified
configurations for the GUI and shell. It is located in the Windows 
folder unless the system is set up
for multiple users, in which case each user will have a separate 
User.dat file located in
Windows\Profiles\username (where username is the name of the user).

Windows Dynamic Link Libraries

/windows/system

( Windows NT )

Registry Files

/winnt/profiles/(username)/ntsystem.dat
/winnt/profiles/(username)/ntuser.dat
/windows/win.ini -- for 16-bit app compatibility

If there are multiple profiles on one machine (one local, one as part of 
a domain, etc.),
then the user directory will be the user name plus a number.

/documents and settings/(username)/ntsystem.dat
/documents and settings/(username)/ntuser.dat
