Marthax Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Hi everbody!When I try using Xplode to add a registry entry to windows registry it doesn't give any results. <execute display="Executing Registry Tweaks"> <registry mode="write"> [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] "DAEMON Tools-1033"=- "DiskeeperSystray"=- "NeroFilterCheck"=- "NVMixerTray"=- "NvMEdiaCenter"=- "nwiz"=- "NvCplDaemon"=- "CTHelper"=- "iTunesHelper"=- "QuickTime Task"=- "NvMcTray"=- "NvCpl"=- [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel] "{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000000 "{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}"=dword:00000000 "{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000000 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer] "NoRecentDocsMenu"=dword:00000001 </registry> </execute>The point with these registry entries is to remove all startup programs, but it doesn't work as they still start at windows logon.Can't seem to see what's wrong here. Anyone?Marthax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 If you can just copy/paste it into a *.reg, and run it that way, then I have no idea why XPlode isn't working.All XPlode does is write the registry stuff to a temporary file, import that into the registry using regedit /s X4xxx.tmp, then deletes the temp file.If doing it manually does work.... then perhaps you're going to have to do it manually, because it *looks* okay. Well, XPlode syntax does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanoll Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Add REGEDIT4 just after the registry tag at the top, but before the first registry key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Add REGEDIT4 just after the registry tag at the top, but before the first registry key.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Don't.Unless you're testing for yourself.XPlode automatically adds Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 to the start of the file before running it.

Glowy Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 The execute tags are not for registry entry's.The registry tags are enough, as long as they are enclosed by an item tag.So I suggest you replace the execute tags with item tags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Very perceptive.I must admit, I don't generally read the XML syntax outside the offending tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marthax Posted May 25, 2005 Author Share Posted May 25, 2005 I removed the execute line and it works now. Thanks a lot! Especially you, Glowy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
