To go along with Franc's final comment, there is a software program named
RegView that will take a snapshot of your registry. You can then make
changes and RegView will compare the current registry to the snapshot and
identify everything that has changed.

Hello,
Where does Windows 98, 98 SE, and Me store their country/region and
language datas in their registries? I am not having luck in determining
what keys have these information.
At first, I thought it was HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control
Panel\International\ with Locale, but I don't think this it. Basically,
I just need to check the country/region and language what Windows is
using via a software checker. This is for both English and localized
operating systems.
Thank you in advance.
Win98SE writes these settings to win.ini.
It also stores them in the registry at these keys:
[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\International]
"Locale"="00000C09"
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Nls\Locale
I notice that if I change the currency symbol, say, for my selected
region (Australia) to something other than the default, this choice is
recorded as follows:
[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\International]
"Locale"="00000C09"
"sCurrency"="?"
The above example is the result of changing from a $ symbol to the
Euro.
BTW, you can determine where in the registry certain settings are
stored by comparing the registry before and after you make the
changes.
