Bonjour,
you can use a program called reg.exe to load/unload hives
in regedit.

would like to load a user's NTUSER.dat file into the
registry and then make a couple changes on it. Then
unload the hive. To do it manually, I would click on
HKEY_USERS, then click on File and "Load Hive". I would
then navigate through Documents and Settings to find the
profile I need to edit, select the ntuser.dat file and
load it. Then I can make changes. When I'm done, I hit
File then "Unload Hive".
