A system and method of providing access to information stored in a system
registry is provided. The system and method can further facilitate a
generic (e.g., application and/or operating system independent) manner
for dynamic partitioning of the system registry. The present invention
facilitates providing of customized view(s) of the system registry to
client(s), component(s) and/or application(s). Customization can be based
on version, computer configuration, user and/or other suitable
information. Further, the customized view of the system registry can be
manipulated at runtime. Additionally and/or alternatively, low level
component(s) (e.g., client(s) and/or application(s)) can also be given
access to a dynamic partition data store to manipulate (e.g., add, delete
and/or modify) redirection information (e.g., via interface
component(s)).
