I am trying to write to the Registry using Jscript. I am able to do this command for REG_SZ, but it doesn't support REG_MULTI_SZ.
How can I write to the Registry using Jscript when the Registry I am trying to change is of type REG_MULTI_SZ?
var WshShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell");
var regPath = "HKLM\\SOFTWARE\\PROGRAM\\ProgramName";
var newVal = "com.settings=changed";
var regType = "REG_SZ";
WshShell.RegWrite (regPath, newVal, regType);
I did not end up using Penton.RegObject. but that link did send me to finding a solution.
instead I did this to change the REG_MULTI_SZ:
var objShell = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application");
var commandtoRun = "reg.exe "; //"C:\\Windows\\System32\\reg.exe ";
var regPath = "HKLM\\SOFTWARE\\PROGRAM\\ProgramName";
var newVal = "com.settings=changed\\0com.user=newUserName\\0";
var args = "ADD \""+regPath + "\" /v Options /t REG_MULTI_SZ /d "+newVal;
objShell.ShellExecute(commandtoRun,args);
