Is the registry actually being phased out?
Of course not, we need to be able to store the huge amount of detailed settings in a OS somewhere.
in a registry though? maybe the registry in windows is so hard to work with and automate that it is the reason that Linux took all of windows market share for computers that do work (everything but desktops)
You don't have to use it, there's app data folders now.
