Trouble Locating Registry Key from Process monitor for Visual Studio Express

I have been using Process Monitor (Procmon) to track changes in the registry when I set up auto recovery and a few text editor settings in Visual Studio Express. However, I’m having trouble locating the specific registry key that is being modified. Despite seeing the activity in Procmon, I can’t seem to find the exact registry key to verify or modify it manually.

The registry that is displayed in process monitor after making changes to the settings:

  1. HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WDExpress\15.0_6c7fd93f\General

  2. Auto Recovery:

    • \REGISTRY\A{b976085c-821e-d0bc-7ef3-9609c4ccc30d}\Software\Microsoft\WDExpress\15.0_6c7fd93f\General\AutoRecover\AutoRecover
      Save Interval

    • \REGISTRY\A{b976085c-821e-d0bc-7ef3-9609c4ccc30d}\Software\Microsoft\WDExpress\15.0_6c7fd93f\General\AutoRecover\AutoRecover
      Keep Interval

  3. Text editor>Basic>snippet behavior:

    • \REGISTRY\A{b976085c-821e-d0bc-7ef3-9609c4ccc30d}\Software\Microsoft\WDExpress\15.0_6c7fd93f\ApplicationPrivateSettings\TextEditor\VisualBasic\Specific\SnippetsBehavior
  4. Text editor>C#>snippet behavior:

    • \REGISTRY\A{945d1672-c150-528f-a102-e67b94585dee}\Software\Microsoft\WDExpress\15.0_6c7fd93f\ApplicationPrivateSettings\TextEditor\CSharp\Specific\SnippetsBehavior

I am able to find “HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WDExpress\15.0_6c7fd93f” , but not able to find the registry keys General, Autorecover, etc.

Hoping someone here could provide some insight or solutions.

Thanks in advance
