How to add keys to the registry

[Jacques]

Hello all,
I accidentally put this in the wrong group (different language group),
so I'm reposting here.

How do you write a script to add keys to the registry? I also want to
add values to the keys I add.

Thanks beforehand,

[John John - MVP]

You can use the REG ADD command or you can merge .reg files by calling
regedit.exe

Thanks,
I assume I can script the RED ADD command?
My goal it to be able to add some, change the value in others...all in one
script.

You can also use VB Script or simply push .reg files in Group Policy
Startup scripts, see here:
