Modify reg from Batch

R

Raymond Jette

Good after noon,
I dont know if this is the right place to post this or not so ill give it a
try. Here's the problem. I have a registy key that has to be modified on
about 3000 computers. If the key does not exist I will have to create it.
This has to be done on Windows XP/2K and Windows 9X. I am thinking the best
way to do this is with a batch file. I have been searching the internet for
how to do this and I cant find much good information. Does anyone have any
good information on how this can be done? Any good links?
Thanks for the help,
Ray

Below is the key that I need changed:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ComputerAssociates\eTrustAntivirus\CurrentVersio
n\SystemSetting
Value: RTAboutBox

Data: 0

Using RegWrite method of VBScript may be your best bet. While my forte is
the registry Torgeir's forte is VBScript so have a look at some of these for
some ideas.
