Could somebody tell me how to change the key
THANKS, VegetaSan
this is not where you want to change
what will open with explorer and such
This key
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1614895754-839522115-682003330-1003
Changes per every machine
You want a differn't registry key
That's not the key your looking to change
or rather should not be looking to change.
You want a differn't registry key :)
"You don't want a small Coke you want a Large Coke."
can you give us a mre detailed example of what your trying to accomplish ?
This would help us better to help you.
Oke, I want the key in this map
HKEY_USER\
S-1-5-21-1614895754-839522115-682003330-1003\a-S mpcXP\ogm.reg
I want to name the key "ogm.reg"
and I want to set a key in that map that contains register information to the .ogm extension to open with "mplayercXP.exe"
insted of "wmplayer.exe"
How Do I do that
Thanks, :)VegetaSan:)
you don't do it that way
you do it in the .exe
extention filed located in Hkey Classes Root
That's where the extentions exsist for the mapping of a type
of extention
so if i had say
.aif Extention and i needed it to open with media player
.aif
--[OpenWithList]
----|wmplayer.exe
--[OpenWithProgIds]
--->AIFFFile REG_NONE
--[PersistentHandler]
-->{098f2470-bae0-11cd-b579-08002b30bfeb}
or like this in the same registry area
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ai]
"Content Type"="application/postscript"
@="PaintShopPro8.Image"
this makes the extention .ai open with PaintShopPro8
So write the section to the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT area
and not the current user area
this way one type of extention can be opend by your installed application :)
but to get the current users infro from the registry and jump to the correct key at hand like the first proposed thing you asked about - as far as I know there is no complete way of Auto detecting the current ZONE
the special number of the current logged on user based in NSIS and windows
like $wininstall routine for installing directly to windows
as for the area that you were first writing to that area can also be um lets say Restricted and especially if the user is not administrator. and somtimes even if he or she is not Administrator
so writing to the top key is the safest bet of getting that extention installed and mapped to the program :)
I know how to do it in other programming languages
such as vb6 and C++ and others but the functionality as far as I know is not built into nsis as of yet.
I hope this helps ?
Mabey someone else can shed more light on this...
P.s. as for
"Could somebody tell me how to change the key"
writing back over the key changes it :)
Does this help ?
:igor:
But how do you insert a key with the nsis installer?
to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ogm
??
WriteRegStr HKCR ".irc\Shell\open\command" "" "mirc.exe"
WriteRegStr HKCR ".irc\Shell\open\command" "BackupCommand" "Pirch.exe"
I have checked the .ogm in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.ogm\ShellEx\open\command]
@="mplayercXP.exe"
"C:\\Program Files\\a-S Media Player ClassicXP\\mplayercXP.exe"="mplayercXP.exe"
What is wrong with this?? :( It should be right!
If you see any errors in this piece of the Key please tell meI have checked the .ogm in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.ogm\ShellEx\open\command]
@="mplayercXP.exe"
"C:\\Program Files\\a-S Media Player ClassicXP\\mplayercXP.exe"="mplayercXP.exe"
What is wrong with this?? :( It should be right!
If you see any errors in this piece of the Key please tell me
sorry I have pasted it two times !
ok I had to do some registry stuff with my installer
and I ran into a regitry portion of my install that I can show you as a Example and it works ;)
WriteRegStr HKLM "SOFTWARE\Apache Group" "" ""
WriteRegStr HKLM "SOFTWARE\Apache Group\Apache" "" ""
WriteRegStr HKLM "SOFTWARE\Apache Group\Apache\2.0.48" "" ""
WriteRegStr HKLM "SOFTWARE\Apache Group\Apache\2.0.48" "ServerRoot" "$INSTDIR\Apache Group\Apache2\"
WriteRegDWORD HKLM "SOFTWARE\Apache Group\Apache\2.0.48" "Shared" "1"
By writing the key it actually creates the key
I think this can be done Automagicly as well :weird:
that's nsis registry coding
not the .reg exported stuff:igor:
From the code your showing me is a Registry export file .reg
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.ogm\ShellEx\open\command]
@="mplayercXP.exe"
"C:\\Program Files\\a-S Media Player ClassicXP\\mplayercXP.exe"="mplayercXP.exe"
show us the Nsis code
Let me know if this helps :)
Don't always take the answer as the final solution because there may be more then 1 solution :)
try looking at
AUFile in HKLM
Somtimes more things need to be done to solve the solution
so if we can't show you an example ,we try to lead you in the right direction hopefully.
Could you be more specified .......
A Kinda like this
WriteRegStr HKLM "SOFTWARE\YOUR GROEP NAME" "" ""
Thanks, VegetaSan
Oke I got that part, but now I want to insert a key to this map that contains register information to set .ogm files to open with "mplayercXP.exe"
How do I do that??
THX, VegetaSan
