The real reason for the registry is to make it difficult to copy an
application from one machine to another. In other words, it's a copy
proctection scheme. Remember in the days of Win 3.1, you could do that? It
all broke in Win95 with the registry.

now the key to transfering the application from one machine to another is also trasnfering the associated registy 
entries and values to the new machine also
