win_regedit software restriction HKCU

[Kumaresh kulal]

I am working on win_regedit playbook to restrict software.

So far the win_regedit playbook gets created for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE below is the playbook:

---

- hosts: windows

  tasks:

   - name: Creating a registry

     win_regedit:

      path: HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\DisallowRun

   - name: Modifying a registry, adding name and data

     win_regedit:

      path: HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\DisallowRun

      value: 1

      datatype: string

      data: 'cmd.exe'

But Registry is not getting created for HKEY_CURRENT_USER

- hosts: windows

  tasks:

   - name: Creating a registry

     win_regedit:

      path: HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\DisallowRun

   - name: Modifying a registry, adding name and data

     win_regedit:

      path: HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\DisallowRun

      value: 1

      datatype: string

      data: 'cmd.exe'

Even tried writing simple registry
