Emulate the registry and run the executable to use this registry

Question

I am currently writing a program that accepts other programs, copies them and saves them in another folder. The goal of my program is to run other programs with different settings. For programs that use configuration files, this works fine. However, for some of the programs, the configuration values ​​that they store are stored in the registry.

I was interested in two different things:

1) Is it possible to create a "fake" registry

2) Can I run the executable inside an isolated area to use a fake registry?

Thank!
