Windows Mobile devices also have a registry. We can customized many of the defaults on our devices to suit our needs. The structure of Windows Mobile registry is very similar to the Windows Registry structure, so if you are familiar with it, you will find this just as easy. If you have not yet delved into a registry, you will find this quite tricky.
