Interpretation of registry log of tweakui produced registry alteration

vincemoon

Below is an excerpt from my Registry Log, created by Redmon, showing
the process whereby TweakUI added the compressed folder option to the
new sub-menu in the right click context menu for open folders and
desktop.

I hope someone can help me to better understand what this log excerpt
means, or point me to info sources that do a good job of explaining how
to interpret exactly what the various phrases, words, and numbers in
the log mean.

I am tempted to elaborate on the relative importance of this log
excerpt compared to other trivial pursuits, but why bother? Someone
will argue, or someone might get too smart, which might redound to my
personal disadvantage.
