Five files stored in the C:\Windows\System32\config folder; these files are called hives and they are named the SAM (Security Accounts Manager), Security, Software, System, and Default hives.
Windows XP registry hives are the main sections of the Windows registry that store configuration settings and options for the operating system and installed applications. Key hives include HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (system-wide settings), HKEY_CURRENT_USER (user-specific settings), HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (file associations and COM object registrations), and HKEY_USERS (all user profiles). These hives are stored in files on the disk and are loaded into memory during system startup, allowing the operating system to access necessary configuration information.
