Aaron Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 the best way to do this is to get a program that takes a snapshot of your registry before and after. I'm still looking for such a program that's able to do this, as Regmon is too complex for this kind of thing, and needs a lot of patience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start Registry Watch and click on Start log. tick/untick the checkbox of whatever option you're setting, then click on Compare in Registry Watch.For shortcuts, such as calc:COPY "%Systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\Calculator.lnk" "%Systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\application data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch"For QuicktimeDEL "%Systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\application data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\nameofshortcut.lnk" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bachus Posted August 11, 2003 Share Posted August 11, 2003 Interesting tool you've found, Aaron, but I've got a question. Under HKEY_USERS, I have a string "S-1-5-21-1409082233-602609370-725345543-1003" that all of the registry values seem to be stored in. This appears to be randomly generated as this value is different on the virtual PC install I just tested (identical usernames and passwords, although I'm using the old XP Corp copy of XP to avoid any WPA issues that might spring up unexpectedly which could very well be my problem. In short, how and when does Windows determine what this key (what is the correct term for the "directories" within the registry, anyway?) will be?

matgroulx Posted August 11, 2003 Author Share Posted August 11, 2003 Thanks a lot for your help, I have downloaded ''Active Registry Monitor'' I find its better than regmon. Thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
