I want registry for Search option in right click?

[nice_guy75]

Hey guys, I am looking for a registry which can add search option in the right click.

Secondly I wish to use Autoit for running registries and 2 exe which are also registries but in exes.

Like for installing silent applications we use cmd file and for regisries we use .reg files I wish to compile cmd files and reg files in .exe with the help of Autoit.

I don't know anything about Autoit but I know Autoit can be used for such purpose, please help me guys.

search via windows which is terrible and slow or something else.

Click my Seven_UA link and look in tools folder for psfind, adds a right click 'File Finder...' on drives and folders which works way better than MS search. can search content also with that

nice_guy75, I use AutoIt in XP x64 install and it is a very powerful tool. You can run programs from it as well a reading and writing Registry entries. It is fairly easy to use, has good online documentation and best of all is free. Enjoy, John.

RegWrite("HKCR\Directory\Background\shell\Change Wallpaper\command", "", "REG_SZ", "control desk.cpl,,@desktop")

you can compile au3 file attached to convert reg files to au3

Reg2au3.au3

You are really a life saver brother, I was trying to learn how to write script for registries. Now I can make multiple reg files with this file, and then finally compile all those regitries into an exe file with Autoit.

Just one last question can I use this file to convert a reg file with multiple registries in it into au3 file.

nice_guy75, here is the code for just the first key/value - others will be same form. I also attach the compiled .exe which is a 64 bit executable. Hope this helps you understand. Please remember I am not a programmer, but a hacker. Enjoy, John.

#cs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

AutoIt Version: 3.3.0.0

Author: myName

Script Function:

Template AutoIt script.

#ce ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

; Script Start - Add your code below here

;Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;Created for AskVG.com by Vishal Gupta

;[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell]

;@="none"

;

;[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\Change Wallpaper]

;

;[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\Change Wallpaper\command]

;@="control desk.cpl,,@desktop"

$ReturnCode = RegWrite("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell","","REG_SZ","none")

If $ReturnCode = 0 Then

MsgBox (48,"Registry error.", "Failure to write Default Value in shell Key, code = "&@error&".")

EndIf

EDIT: My attached failed, but it does not look like you need it.

Thanks brother for your help but I am getting some problem when I try File Finder from right click this is what I get:

Though PDFind.exe is working fine but not the registry. Can you please suggest a solution for this?

[MrJinje]

No problem, I have working solution.... Just place Nirsoft SearchMyFiles.exe in your Windows directory and use this .reg file. It creates a Right Click entry on all your folders. Probably needs some tweaking, have at it.

SearchMyFiles.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\SearchMyFiles\command]
@="cmd /C \"SearchMyFiles.exe /BaseFolder %1 /StartSearch\""

Details and download here.

Read.txt said copy pdfind.exe to root like C:\

Needs some tweaking for sure, when it open it starts listing every file instead of bringing up the criteria box.

I have my SearchMyFiles reg version bringing up criteria box but something not complete yet, hadn't got back to it.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\shell\. SearchMyFiles\command]
@="C:\\SearchMyFiles.exe /ScanSubfolders 1 /BaseFolder \"%1\""

EDIT: reason I put on root is for some reason 64 don't like me adding them things with my installer .cmds
