Trying to merge .reg with Registry Edit Disabled

Featured Replies

We are running our users as 'Users' (as opposed to local admins) and registry editing is disabled so the built-in apps such as reg.exe and regedit/regedt32 will not run in the users context.

Our problem is that I would like to push some registry changes in the form of a .reg file to our users to modify their HKCU hive (which they DO have rights to). Pushing a

regedit /s {path}\file.reg

produces the message that registry editing has been disabled.

Is there some other process or application that can take a standard .reg file and modify the registry? I can't run this as an admin because it's the HKCU hive which is specific to that user and I have a fairly large number of entries so it needs to be fairly hands-off meaning a custom group policy is out of the question. Any thoughts?

The policy only disables regedit and reg.exe, im pretty sure you can use a 3rd party registry editor to import the changes.
