VistaBootPRO is used to make changes to the Windows Vista Boot Configuration Data (BCD) registry quickly, painlessly, and easily. The only other way to do so is by use of the command prompt application "bcdedit.exe," located in the Windows\system32 folder of Windows Vista.
The Vista Boot Configuration Data Store has replaced the boot.ini file (that we have all worked with in Windows XP and earlier). In a multi-boot scenario where one has both Windows Vista and an older version of Windows installed, it "interfaces" with the boot.ini file to perfect multi-booting.
VistaBootPRO, while being a feature complete 1.0 and fully functional, is still a Beta app and is an ongoing project.
VistaBootPRO can be used to make some basic "cosmetic" changes to the Vista Boot Menu in a dual boot scenario, such as renaming the entries from the standard "Earlier versions of Windows" and "Microsoft Windows" to nicer and for more intuitive names. It also has advanced functionality options of all shapes and colors for power users allowing the adding of operating systems to the boot menu and removing of redundant/dead entries.
