Registry Monitoring Program on Windows

1

Is there an application that watches the registry in real time, and tell me which registry keys got modified when I install a program?

This is useful as I don't want my program, downloaded from the Internet, simply change crucial registry and in the worse case, render my OS unusable.

There is a tool called regmon. It's pretty good for what you are trying to do.

You can also use its spin off called Process Monitor.

Yes! The Sysinternals tools are the way to go! Regmon has actually been retired and replaced by Process Monitor, which is a much more flexible and powerful tool.
