Tweak UI modifies the <a href="/facts/Windows_Registry/cH9RlHTp">Windows Registry</a> in the same way as a user could edit it manually with a program such as <a href="/facts/RegEdit/cH9RlHTp">RegEdit</a>, but provides a simple <a href="/facts/Graphical_user_interface/wBlQFWDP">graphical user interface</a> that does not need knowledge of the registry structure, is quicker and easier to use, and not susceptible to registry damage due to user error. </p><p>Tweak UI was formerly downloadable free of charge from Microsoft's website. It is one of Microsoft's many non-supported <i><a href="/facts/Microsoft_PowerToys/cfJJW5CK">PowerToys</a></i>. </p>
