WriteRegXXX
Hi,
I am using NSIS to add context menu support for one of my websites. Cutting to the chase, how do you use WriteRegStr/Bin/Dword to write a default value for a new key.
I am trying to create a key HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Internet Explorer/MenuExt/MyOwnKey and set the default value of MyOwnKey to http://www.mysite.com
If I try to use (Default) as the subkey value using WriteRegStr, it adds a new key called (Default) instead of modifying the default value of the key.
Hope that makes the question clear.
Thanks,
Darene

It's okay, no need to reply folks. I found the answer, just had to leave the subkey value blank "" !
Wasn't there in the HTML help file, but figured it from the examples.
Thanks anyway,
Darene
