I don't really see much point in continuing as Sledger has prompted us.

Well the decision is yours Grace but as far as I know Steve and covoxer's XaReg2 is not open source so an open source version could still provide The Xara community with a version that would always be accessible to be continued.

Autocorrect: It can be your worst enema.
It's largely your call, Grace, as you've taken the lead on this. Programatically changing registry keys is relatively trivial, but the time to design a friendly UI, verify which settings should be included, document and test thoroughly for each version of each of the applicable Xara products, is not. That's primarily why I haven't pursued it myself before now as the time commitment is a major factor. And of course any time your messing with the registry, you do want to test well before making public.
If there is sufficient community support for it, it may be a worthwhile exercise. If nothing else, I think that documenting the various registry settings would be extremely useful.

Well last night I was really annoyed and ready to cancel the whole thing. But if everyone wants to continue, I am in. I am retired, so time commitment is not too big of a problem. Although, after retirement, I could never figure out how I fit work in
I'm willing to help test if you need it

done - I have joined sourceforge my user name is handrawn [same as here] - I am willing to help with testing
[also 15 years ago I did program in C, but on unix - that may well be no use at all, but I thought I'd mention it]
