Hi, Thanks very much in advance for any help!

I have a login script for my users that adds a registry key to
hkey_current_user\software. The command in the script is

regedit /s PathToRegKeyFile

When the script runs, it shows the cmd window executing the script,
then when it gets to the regedit /s line, it displays only:

c:\regedit /s

and a regedit window opens. Upon closing the regedit window, the
c:\regedit /s changes to c:\regedit /s PathToRegKeyFile and the key is
added. How can I make the regedit window not open?

Thanks again!
