Xfce has it as well but it is far from Windows' registry (though I am not familiar with Windows at all),
it is simply a programme to manage XML configuration files that are responsible mostly for look-and-feel.
if I understand anything.

Unless there will be software that relies on systemd and can't work without it, they won't.
