Is it possible to open regedit and navigate to straight to a specific key using process.start?

问题

I'm making a small tool that can write a key in registry, and a tiny part of it just for convenience would be to navigate to that key instantly with the click of a button. I know how to open regedit.exe already but is there a way to instantly navigate to the key i need? I'm trying with

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("regedit.exe" + "c/ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE");

but i think it's just trying to write a key into registry.

Thanks in advance!

-Actually the tool is for myself mainly. I'm still very much a newb at c# or programming in general, and I am learning it on my own. This program is 1/2 a test of what I can do and 1/2 a utility for my later work. My goal with this is to be able to write a key into registry and after that be able to navigate to it and delete it in seconds with out having to manually search through the regedit.

Thank you for the information! I guess if it's that hard to implement, it's really not worth my time and effort.

This thread is a bit old bit if anyone else ends up here by googling this works.

Set LastKey to your path you want regedit to open in
Launch regedit.

Example:

var registryLocation =  "Your key here";
var registryLastKey = @"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Regedit";           
    try
    {
        Registry.SetValue(registryLastKey, "LastKey", registryLocation); // Set LastKey value that regedit will go directly to
        Process.Start("regedit.exe");
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
    }
