This icon is to the left of the Computer icon you selected when making a backup. Doing so will "expand" the Computer folder, which displays the folders inside of it below the Computer icon. If Computer already shows several folders below it, it is already expanded. There will usually be five folders inside of the Computer folder: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT HKEY_CURRENT_USER HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE HKEY_USERS HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG Clicking any folder in the Registry Editor will display the folder's contents in the right-hand panel of the Registry Editor. For example: if you click the HKEY_CURRENT_USER folder, you should see at least one icon on the right side of the page with the name (Default). Click the > icon to the left of a folder to expand it and view its contents. This will work for any folder in the Registry, regardless of where it is. You can also double-click folders to expand them. Some folders (e.g., HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT) contain hundreds of subfolders, meaning that expanding them will result in the left-hand sidebar becoming flooded with subfolders. The Registry can be hard to navigate when this happens, but all folders are arranged alphabetically. These are in the upper-left side of the Registry Window, and include the following: File - Import or export a Registry file, or print a selected item. Edit - Change aspects of a selected Registry item, or create a new one. View - Enable or disable the Registry address bar (not all versions of Windows 10 have this feature). You can also view the binary data for a selected Registry item. Favorite - Add a selected Registry item to your computer's Favorites folder. Help - View Microsoft's help page for the Registry. You'll find an icon with a red ab on it labeled (Default) in most Registry folders. Double-clicking it will open it for you to view its contents. This will close your opened Registry item.
