regripper

Regripper’s CLI tool can be used to surgically extract, translate, and display information (both data and metadata) from Registry-formatted files via plugins in the form of Perl-scripts. It allows the analyst to select a hive-file to parse and a plugin or a profile, which is a list of plugins to run against the given hive. The results go to STDOUT and can be redirected to a file, that the analyst designates.

Forensic analysis of Registry hives

root@kali:~# regripper -h
Rip v.3.0 - CLI RegRipper tool	
Rip [-r Reg hive file] [-f profile] [-p plugin] [options]
Parse Windows Registry files, using either a single module, or a profile.

NOTE: This tool does NOT automatically process Registry transaction logs! The tool 
does check to see if the hive is dirty, but does not automatically process the
transaction logs.  If you need to incorporate transaction logs, please consider 
using yarp + registryFlush.py, or rla.exe from Eric Zimmerman.

  -r [hive] .........Registry hive file to parse
  -d ................Check to see if the hive is dirty 
  -g ................Guess the hive file type 
  -a ................Automatically run hive-specific plugins 
  -aT ...............Automatically run hive-specific TLN plugins 
  -f [profile].......use the profile 
  -p [plugin]........use the plugin
  -l ................list all plugins
  -c ................Output plugin list in CSV format (use with -l)
  -s systemname......system name (TLN support)
  -u username........User name (TLN support)
  -uP ...............Update default profiles
  -h.................Help (print this information)
  
Ex: C:\>rip -r c:\case\system -f system
    C:\>rip -r c:\case\ntuser.dat -p userassist
    C:\>rip -r c:\case\ntuser.dat -a
    C:\>rip -l -c

All output goes to STDOUT; use redirection (ie, > or >>) to output to a file.
