How to register Alcohol 120 ?

[xtremexxx]

HI,

I have a valid key and latest Alcohol 120% v1.9.2.1705.

But I can't seem to tell where it puts the key in registry or any other method...

Anyone been through this ?

Problem solved:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Alcohol Soft\Alcohol 120%\Info]
"UserName"="username"
"Company"="Home"
"SerialNo"="removed"

[xtremexxx]

There is a slight problem though , during unattended install, I install it in runonceex and the current user is admin ( as I know ), and HKEY_CURRENT_USER will be valid for admin, after the restart, when you login with your user, it wont be registered, searched a way around this but it's not static, and so far I have no way to do it correctly, any tips ?

Here's the page for the exact problem http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/hkcu_registry.htm

Excellent.

@MCT : testing right now.

@Alanoll : from the guide

Simply place regtweaks.reg in the same folder where cmdlines.txt exists. That would be: C:\XPCD\$OEM$\

I have my RegTewaks.reg in $OEM$\$1\Install, if I put it in $OEM$ will that do ? ( And if so how do I run it, currently running it at the end of runonceex.cmd )

Thanks.

@MCT: sorry to say, it did not work.

[MCT]

for the cmdlines way..

just put your .reg file inside your $OEM$ directory

& in cmdlines.txt add this

[COMMANDS]
"REGEDIT /S regtweaks.reg"

thats it but i'd say its pointless 2 do if u are only wanting it for 1 thing.. the point of this is all tweaks will be applied to

[HKEY_USERS\.Default\

instead of

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\

Okey Will try the first thing, and quick question:

any difference between REGEDIT -S or /S ?

[MCT]

nothin both will work (or should)

does the first segment of code go in start.cmd? and why do you need to have two registrations? sorry noob here...

[--=ddSHADOW=--]

its for RunOnceEx.cmd and the first .reg register the program for current user, the 2nd reg register the program for all users. Works for me.

still doesn't work... After installation, the registry have both information in .default and currect user.
