Registry is a developer API only. This module has no end-user functionality.

The registry is a key-value store which loads on each request and contains information about the request and other context. It allows modules to set and request information along the execution chain.

The registry is only for aggregating information about the current request, and is not used for storing information across requests (for this, use Drupal's variable functions, or consider the Object Cache module).
