Change user registry etc. for all existing users

[midiboy]

Hi guys,

I did a quick search but nothing really came up so I am opening a new topic for this. I am looking for a way to change user registry settings and user files for all existing users on a machine. Say I am installing Net Transport on a machine that already has user profiles and I want to change the default downloadpath for each user. Net Transport stores that info in the user registry hive (HKEY_CURRENT_USER) so for the user installing the software there is no problem.

But how would I go about editing the registry of each existing userprofile ? Somehow I would need a script that checks how many userprofiles exist in the Profiles directory and then load each ntuser.dat seperately and make the change ... or is there an easier way ?

Thanks for your help !! Maybe someone already solved that problem ??

Bye,

Alex

You can set the registry key using policys. You will have to write your own ADM file that defines the policy.
