在Windows 7中应从.reg文件中的键中检索值

Question

the path in registry :
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Windows\\MySoftware\\Version1
Name: installpath
value: c:/Program files/MySoftware/

How do I get the installpath value via .reg file syntax?

I have read MS document on .reg file, it can add/delete, but I don't find how to retrieve value. Any idea?

update
I am trying to use *.reg file to set registry.
Or whether .reg file can retrieve key's value?

Answer 1

There is no true way of actually retrieving the value of a registry key using a *.reg file. The .reg extension is not really a language but more like instructions given to registry editor to interpret and thus extremely limited.

The easiest way to grab values is by going to your reg editor, going to that path then in the file menu selecting export.

This will save that value as a .reg file.

To set a key use the following syntax

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Windows\MySoftware\Version1]
"installpath"="c:/Program files/MySoftware/"

Save that into file.reg and run it.

You can also use other utilities such as cmd and powershell if required to grab registry data.
