Writing to the registry

How can you write to the registry in java, and then retrieve those keys (for an installer)?

J++, microsoft's old tool, had a way to do this.
Standard java may not support this type of thing as
it is not platform independent.I'd suggest that you'd check out the Preferences class's behaviour on a Windows system and then make another assumption...

  • LabVIEW Installer is not writing to the registry

    I have a LabVIEW installer with the following Registry page in it and it does not write the values I have requested to the registry on Windows Server 2008 R2.  Any clues that anyone can give me to assist.
    Note:  The [INSTALLDIR] variable is a valid command.

    Hi Cbauer,
    You didn't mention which bitness of LabVIEW 2009 you were using, but I'd guess 32-bit?  If so, just a sanity check that you are looking at the 32-bit registry location on Server 2008 R2? 
    Assuming you're using 32-bit LabVIEW, then it is going to create a 32-bit installer. The 32-bit installer can only write to the 32-bit registry. So though you are writing to HKLM\Software\Summitek (which is a 64-bit registry location), Windows redirects the key creation to HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Summitek (which is the 32-bit location). Look at that location to see if your key is there.
    This isn't actually a problem, as if your 32-bit LabVIEW application tries to open HKLM\Software\Summitek - it too will be automatically redirected to the "Wow6432Node" location. So in short, because of Window's automatic redirection, it's something you don't usually need to worry about.

  • Writing to the Windows Registry

    Having attempted to hijack a related thread (sorry) I am starting my own regarding my attempts to write to the windows registry. As I ask in the link referenced, does anyone have any suggestions regarding what I may be doing incorrectly? I'm not sure how to construct a path that reaches that deeply into the registry structure.

    Can you post some code snippet so we can look for the mistake?
    Some blind guesses: 
    To be less nervously playing, you could just try to read the key at first (use the permission KEY_READ).
    The Value you want to obtain is IFProtocol, this is not part of the key.
    You won't be able to write the key if you're not admin. Users can only write in there own profile at HKEY_USERS. Makes sense as this is hardware related...

  • Define adobe reader 11 protected view privileged locations via the registry

    Is it possible to define adobe reader 11 protected view privileged locations via the registry?
    I need to add the folder path our docuemnt managment system uses for its temp directory.
    Thanks

    I modified the transform file I use to deploy reader via group policy with the adobe customization wizard and specified the desired privileged locations.
    I then did a test deploy of reader to a workstation and adobe reader 11.0.02 was installed.  None of the privileged locations I defined in the transform are showing up as being defined in the GUI and they are not in the registry @ HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\TrustManager\cTrustedFolders I used filemon to figure out where reader was writing to in the registry.
    I don’t know if there are issues with certain parts of the transform being ignored when installing the software. I have noticed that if I install adobe reader via the command line and apply the transform, the installer completely ignores the transform but gives no errors.

  • Use AD data to set values in the registry

    Hi all,
    Hope some one can help me.
    I am working on a GPO to update values in the registry. Some of these values should be set, with fields from the Active Directory, like Office, Department, etc.
    Is this possible using the GPO preferences or can this only be done through a script. 
    Thanks.

    I'm trying to think of a way you could do this just using preferences but at the minute im struggling, I think you would need to use a script first to grab the details of the user and then create the reg keys on the fly, then import them in to the computer.
    Depends on where you want the reg keys to go you may struggle a little here though if your users are not admins on their PC's. As to write to HKLM you need admin rights. But to get the user information you would need to use a user login script, rather than
    a computer startup script.
    I'll have a think and see if there is a better approach. Just for my understanding I guess you are looking at writing values to the local computer registry for the currently logged on user?

  • Reseting the registry

    I have had the same message over and over when trying to install ITunes again for the 100th time. Says error writing to a registry file and tells me to make sure I have access. Well I read up on registry file writing errors such as this where you have permission but it still says to verify permission. All answers pointed to reseting the permissions in XP for the registry. Well found this helpful page for doing exactly that: http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/reset-the-registry-and-the-file-permissions-in -windows-xp/
    Problem is it didn't change my problem of access being granted. I am still getting the same error about verifying access. Honestly I think Itunes 8 really did a number on all of us and apple needs to put better info on their support page.
    Anybody out there go down this road and ever get their Itunes to work again............let me know!!

    new discovery!!! This file that cannot be written to is corrupted. It has nothing to do with it being open for writing or me having access to it(which I do). The file itself can't be read or written to at all. I can't even get rid of the quicktime folder for a fresh install, do to this corrupted file in there. I have no way to delete the file so a new one can be installed. Basically I can't try reinstalling itunes till I find a way to fully uninstall the old one with the corrupted file.
    anybody have any suggestions about removing a corrupted file??
    I was thinking of just renaming and hiding or moving directory so alteast the new version can install.........help

  • Searching the Registry

    I looked at the other forums posts on this subject, but my question is, can you search ALL of the registry using JUST the java API? It would be better since the program im writing is going to be used by multiple people and so it would be easier for them not to have to install additional libraries than just the Java JDK.
    Thanks.
    Lawrence Lu

    What registry? The RMI Registry? The Windows Registry? The Macy's bridal registry?
    I'll assume you are referring to the Windows Registry... in which case, there is nothing in the Java API to allow you to read it in any way. Unless you can find the file that it's stored in and interpret the format (never tried that).
    You'd need to find some JNI-based DLL for doing this (or write one), and you only need to have it placed with the rest of your Java code.

    When I am writing an email, I get an alert message that says “The message could not be copied or moved to the drafts folder. Writing to the folder failed. To gain disc space, choose Empty Deleted and choose Compact Folders and try again.”
    If I do that, I get a message saying “There was an error copying to the Sent folder,, retry?”
    If I retry it sends the uncompleted email. All I can do is keep deleting the message and carry on. Then the whole business might repeat itself.
    Help!

    Because the location for each song in your library is on your hard drive.  If the hard drive isn't there, how can iTunes play it?
    You'll have to move/copy the music from your hard drive to your computer's hard drive.
    Basically, EASIEST way to do all this, if you don't care about your play counts, etc...
    -Delete EVERYTHING from iTunes, so that your library is now empty.
    -Go to "Advanced" inside of the "Preferences" window, found in the "Edit" drop-down.  You can also access Preferences by pressing Ctrl+, (Press Ctrl and the comma key)
    -Change your iTunes Media Folder Location to something simple, but on your computer. I use C:/iTunes.  Make sure "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" and "Copy files to...." are both checked.  You can close Preferences now.
    -Now, drag and drop your music from your hard drive into your iTunes library.  iTunes will automatically add the music to your library, as you would expect, and also creates a copy of each file to place into that iTunes Media Folder you just created.
    Shouldn't have any more problems...

  • When I attempt to log on to I tunes I get the following message  "The registry settings used by the I tunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing  This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software  Please reinstall

    When I attempt to log on to I tunes I get the following message:
    "The registry settings used by the I Tunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing.
      This can happen as a result of installing other CD burning software. Please re-install I Tunes."
    To my knowledge no new software has been installed.  I have tried un-installing and re-installing I Tunes but I still
    get the same message.
    Can anyone offer any suggestions?  Do I need to download a new driver?
    Bill Martin

    I can get down as far as step 11 but it shows nothing about upper filters and when I type on "If the Upper Filters entry is missing follow these instructions" nothing happens
    Do you mean you can't see the instructions on what to do if there is no UpperFilters entry?
    If so, here's the relevant instructions for that step:
    On the right side of the Registry Editor window, right-click the UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.
    Right-click the empty white space within the right-hand portion of the Registry Editor window. From the shortcut menu, choose New > Multi-String Value.
    Name this new value "UpperFilters" (without the quotes). Then, right-click the newly created UpperFilters entry and choose Modify from the shortcut menu.

  • I'm having a problem with the registry and iTunes.

    Vista stopped seeing my DVD/CD drive the other day, so I went to the registry and deleted the high and low pass filters for the drive. This fixed that problem.
    Only problem now was that none of my programs would see the drive, so I had to reinstall all my burning software and such... except that iTunes, after reinstalling it 5 times, still will not see my drive.
    Any ideas or help? Thanks.

    Hi David-
    The advanced adjustments in the Highlights & Shadows tool were combined into the "Mid Contrast" slider in Aperture 3.3 and later. If you have any images in your library that were processed in a version of Aperture before 3.3, there will be an Upgrade button in the Highlights & Shadows tool in the upper right, and the controls you asked about under the Advanced section. Clicking the Upgrade button will re-render the photo using the new version of Highlights & Shadows, and the Advanced section will be replaced with the new Mid Contrast slider. With the new version from 3.3 you probably don't need the Advanced slider, but if you want to use the older version you can download it from this page:

  • Reading the registry from a .bat file

    I've searched a bit on web before asking and I apologies a head of time but my knowledge of .bat files is a little lacking. Currently I have a working .bat file I created, but was looking to adding something extra to it and just can't seem to find exactly
    what I need.. What i'm looking to do is at the top of .bat file I want it to read the registry here HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\IS_DEPT\Simage\HW\Platform
    Under Platform we either have 2 types LT or DT. (laptop or desktop)
    What I want to do is at the top of my bat file have it search this key. If it has the value LT I want it to continue on with the script. If the value is DT I want it to not run the rest of the script and go to :end
    If this is possible can someone provide me with the commands to put at the top of the script with also the IF commands to continue or go to :end

    Thanks for you reply but I'm still a little lost with the reply.
    What is the rest of the commands?
    I understand this will query the registry, but what about searching for "LT or DT" and the IF/GOTO Commands?
    reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\IS_DEPT\Simage\HW\Platform
    I think my confusion is how to define LT or DT as the variable. I keep finding %errorlevel%  variable, but that seems to only define on (1) or off (0)
    Here's what I have so far and I dont' think it's correct.
    reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\IS_DEPT\Simage\HW\Platform /f
    if "%ERRORLEVEL%" == "LT" GOTO HOME
    if "%ERRORLEVEL%" == "DT" GOTO NOOOOPE

  • How can I configure FireFox security setting globally for all users on a PC? Is there something I can do in group policies or throught the registry to insure all users have the same settings?

    Our Bank's core processor has rewritten their product to run in a web browser. Their browser of choice is Firefox 3.6. The specifications from our core processor specify specific security and settings parameters that must be adhered to by all users for their product to run properly. Is there a way to globally configure these settings via the registry or group policies to insure everyone who logs in to a given workstation opens Firefox with the same settings?

  • Vbscript RegRead function not behaving consistently and/or returning correct values when they exist in the registry

    Hello.
    I seem to be having a problem using the RegRead function within vbscript to return a simple value from the registry. When I run it on my workstation (windows 7 x64 sp1), it seems to miss certain registry values that are indeed there (specifically, I am looking
    for instances of "Adobe" in the displayName value of HKLM\Software\wow6432node\microsoft\windows\uninstall). However, when I run on a test VM, it returns the values fine. I am hoping someone might be able to explain this inconsistency and why it
    is happening.
    The code is very simple:
    On Error Resume Next
    if wscript.arguments.count < 1 then
    wscript.echo "usage: regread.vbs <hostname> <appname>"
    wscript.quit
    end if
    AppName = wscript.arguments(1)
    strComputer = wscript.arguments(0)
    const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002
    Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    Set objReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!//"& strComputer & "/root/default:StdRegProv")
    strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall"
    objReg.EnumKey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, strKeyPath, arrSubKeys
    For Each subkey In arrSubKeys
    'wscript.echo subkey
    InstalledAppName = ""
    InstalledAppName = WshShell.RegRead("HKLM\" & strKeyPath & "\" & subkey & "\DisplayName")
    wscript.echo vbtab&"DisplayName: "&InstalledAppName
    if instr(InstalledAppName,AppName) > 0 then
    wscript.echo vbcrlf&"found"&vbcrlf
    end if
    Next
    When I run "cscript regread.vbs remoteHost Adobe" on my local machine, it does not "find" any instance of Adobe within the registry of machine "remoteHost". However, when I run it from a test VM, it does find the existing instances
    of Adobe within the DisplayName value of the uninstall key of the registry, here is the output from both, first the non-working one, then the working test VM.

    Does anyone know why this might be happening? The only main difference is that the machine that the script does not work on, has visual studio 2013 installed.
    Please help

    Well I think we can agree that it is not supported remotely. Because while it did initially work remotely, it didnt behave consistently; that is, it worked on the VM, but not my desktop. That's the whole reason I created this thread. Sorry if you are confused,
    but I most certainly was not lying and not trying to troll the forum or whatever it is you are insuinuating. Chill out a little bit and maybe you might get that Microsoft MVP.
    I am trying to get you t understand why what you are saying is wrong.  You may have thought it worked but there were a number of things that make it impossible to actually work.
    You were enumerating a remote key.  You were using that key name with RegRead and it was looking up the local value.  That is why it could not find remote keys and values.  The local and remote machines will not match on all keys.
    The correct call is the "GetStringValue" of the registry provider because it is the only call that can read remote values. My point is that you were fooling yourself by thinking that it ever actually worked.  If anything it was just dumb luck
    that the keys would match. 
    So maybe you weren't actually lying but you were surely foolingyourself and confusing us.
    Anyway - glad you fixed it and just remember to not mix calls like you did.  Also don't use On Error Resume Next unless you plan on test every call for an error.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
