Launching/deleting/modifying files/folders via Registry.

[JoeBiden]

I am working on a little project and was wondering how to do this? as almost all comps have the same registry path's it would help alot.

Some example code would be awesome

[Opalis]

 Dim regKey As Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey
        regKey = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\Adobe", True)

'Checks if person has any adobe products installed. 

        If regKey Is Nothing Then

            'No adobe products
            'Create subkey
            regKey = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE", True)
            regKey.CreateSubKey("Adobe")
            MsgBox("Adobe Subkey Created")

                 
'Creates a key in Adobe folder called PathName with value: Value.
     Microsoft.Win32.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\Adobe", True)
            regKey.SetValue("PathName", Value)
        End If

'Gets the value stored at pathname.
        MyValue= regKey.GetValue("PathName")

regKey.Close()




'Note: regKey.DeleteSubKey("keyname") can also be used.

Enjoy
