Hi,

How can I create a .bat or .cmd file that enters a registry file without being asked if it's okay/continue, etc.? Something like a silent install.

Hope I made myself clear and your help would be appreciated.


Regards,

According to that /f is what you are looking for.

Example line in a bat file
CODE
reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Test /v silent /f


Hope that is what you are looking for.

Untowire,

If you are looking to import a file with a ".reg" extension, then you'll have to use a somewhat different approach:
CODE
regedit.exe /s "C:\Test\File.reg"


With "C:\Test\File.reg" being the path to the file you wish to merge to the registry.
