Is Persistence of Databases and Registry Supported?
Yes. In Windows CE version 2.1, both databases and registry can exist in RAM, flash PC cards, or anywhere there is a file system. The database is accessed and updated in place (where the customer located it). The registry is accessed and updated in RAM. The embedded customer can call Windows CE API to back up the registry to persistent storage. At system boot, the location of the registry is determined. If the registry is located outside of RAM, the registry is copied at that time into RAM. Registry reads and writes are made from the RAM-based registry.
