    Are your trying to figure its exact size at the moment for some reason? there are several apps that compress it but they will also tell you what the before and after sizes are

    Thanks a lot Ken..and sorry for the late reply.

    Ya..The application which i am using to Compress the Windows Registry shows the size information in terms of % .But How to make sure manually that compression has been done?
