REGEDIT commands work REG SAVE and REG RESTORE do not. Code complete with failed attempts and comments: --- set myRootPath=%cd% set USERPROFILE=%myRootPath% set HOMEPATH=%myRootPath% set LOCALAPPDATA=%myRootPath% REM set ProgramFiles=%myRootPath%\Program Files set APPDATA=%cd%\Application Data set USERNAME=user REM HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1993962763-1844823847-725345543-1003\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\PerPassportSettings\1677426648 REM MessageLogPath %userprofile%/Desktop REM start /MIN msnmsgr.exe pause REM Saves hive REM REG SAVE HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\PerPassportSettings\1677426648 reg.hiv REM Disabled because it puts file into infinite loop REM Adds reg file REGEDIT [ /S ] reg.reg pause start msnmsgr.exe REM Checks to see if msnmsgr.exe is still running :pause tasklist | find /i "msnmsgr.exe" >nul if not %errorlevel%==1 goto :pause REM Reads/saves reg file. Incase of any changes during use REGEDIT /E %cd%/reg.REG "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\PerPassportSettings\1677426648" REM Restores previous hive REM REG RESTORE HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MSNMessenger\PerPassportSettings\1677426648 reg.hiv REM Disabled because it puts file into infinite loop pause --- When running the batch file, I was prompted around 3 times during the import registry procedure. It tries to import to: [ /S ] and finally reg.reg This is caused my improper use: "The /S swith is optional, it skips the message dialogs before and after the import of the *.REG file." http://www.robvanderwoude.com/regedit.php That specific line should read: REGEDIT /S reg.reg Looking at my exported registry file though, I noticed double / marks: "MessageLogPath"="%userprofile%\\My Documents\\My Received Files\\xxx\\History" I have not found an easy way to remove registry keys. Current theory is to take reg.reg after exiting, editting in a text editor, and replacing every occurance of "[" with "[-", saving it as a DIFFERENT reg file such as remove.reg, and running it. | |
