Regestry changes

[Johanvn]

Hello,

I'm trying to create a script that writes a key to the regestry.

When I run the script the key is added to the wrong regestry

Im running windows 7 64bit

when I run the script it is added in the 64bit regestry but I need it in the 32 bit regestry.

the code thqt I use is

regwrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWinlogon", "AutoAdminLogon", "REG_SZ", "1")

Thanks for the help

the 32bit registry key on 64bit windows 7 is  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432Node

 

Your code should be something like this.

regwrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon", "AutoAdminLogon", "REG_SZ", "1")

You should test carefully exactly what is happening in your script because as far as I know the OS deals with what key to use in most cases (Assuming you do not disable registry redirection.

Before you write to wow64, you might want to think about if you need this directive.

#AutoIt3Wrapper_UseX64=n

Tried this, the key is added but when I reboot the pc he does not auto logon with the defined user

when I change the keys I mentionned befor it works.

I don't want to write in wow64, The scripts does this I don't know why

[JohnOne]

Do you know what Wow6432Node is?

[Johanvn]

Do you know what Wow6432Node is?

This is the registry key that is used for redirecting the 64 bit regestry with the 32 registry?

So are you compiling/running your script as 64 bit application or 32 bit application

As 64 bit application I think

But to be sure how can I verify   this?

So:

If @AutoItX64 then
    MsgBox(0,"","Runing as x64")
Else
    MsgBox(0,"","Runing as x86")
    endif

For Writing I think, it should be so:

#RequireAdmin

$return=RegWrite("HKLM64\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon","AutoAdminLogon","REG_SZ", "1")

It seems that when I add the pc to the domain these registry keys change also but this helped me alot
