Archive: Reg_Multi_SZ Woes


Reg_Multi_SZ Woes
Having issues using the Reg_Multi_SZ reader included with NSIS.

I point it at a valid key, but when run I get the second [2] "Can't Query Registry Value"

The field I am trying to access is the "SubnetMask" data under SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\(LONG_UGLY_STRING)

If I switch to any other key that is not a REG_MULTI_SZ, the plug detects so, so I know that it is detecting the key correctly.

I am thinking that the issue may be that this particular REG_MULTI usually has only one actual string in it. I am not entirely clear on how the plugin functions, so I am probably wrong in thinking that this might be the problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I have been banging my head against this one for a while now. Thanks to all in advance.


Replace 'bla' with '${VALUE}'.


Definately works now. Do you know how long I'd been wondering why that was there, and why that call was structured differently from the one above it?

Thanks for the help Kichik :up:
