HKEY_USERS

HKEY_USERS is a section of the Windows Registry that stores settings and preferences for all user accounts on a computer. Think of it as a centralized database containing personalized configurations—like desktop background, application settings, and user-specific options—for each user profile. When someone logs in, Windows loads their specific settings from HKEY_USERS. It ensures that each user’s environment remains private and customized. Essentially, it helps Windows manage and preserve individual user experiences across sessions while sharing the same system.
