Trying to add a reg key based on an entered variable

[Cyberdyne]

My script so far looks like this...

$exename = InputBox("Auto Large Pages","Enter the EXE you want to give Large Pages",".exe")
RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\"&$exename"", "UseLargePages", "REG_DWORD", "00000001")
Msgbox(0, "Results", "Large Pages Enabled for "&$exename)

The second line is said to be incorrect. I don't understand what I am doing wrong, is it simply impossible to use a variable like that?

Try to remove the two "" after your variable.

... and just 1 instead of "00000001"

EDIT: after making the changes the script completes now. But I don't see the key added in the registry. I did close regedit and reopen it just in case. Not there.

NVM, it worked. Had to compile and run as administrator. Thanks for your help!

Add #RequireAdmin at the top of your script to make it run as admin everytime

Yes,#RequireAdmin is often necessary, and have a look in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareWow6432Node
