Hi
This piece of code creates and reads OK a key at "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" and can be changed for a key at "HKEY_CURRENT_USER"
$sta= RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Command Processor", "wav", "REG_SZ", "5555") MsgBox(4096,"wrote", $sta &@cr& @error) $zz= RegRead ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Command Processor", "wav") MsgBox(4096,"readed","="&$zz &@cr& @error) Exit With HKEY_CURRENT_USER, in RegEdit we can see the created key, and we can create the key by hand/RegEdit and everything Works OK.
At HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE we can´t see the created key above thru RegEdit, but it Works (even not seeing, I can read). But if I create "by hand"/RegEdit the key, it can´t read it with $zz= RegRead ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.... above.
I´m the PC´s WIN.7 administrator. Even so I ran RegEdit as administrator and also the compiled AU3 and also plain. No changes.
edit: even if Try "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AAA", "wav", the same holds true.
$sta= RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AAA", "wav", "REG_SZ", "4444") MsgBox(4096,"wrote", $sta &@cr& @error) $zz= RegRead ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\AAA", "wav") MsgBox(4096,"readed","="&$zz &@cr& @error) Exit Seems that it creates this key at another place.... I can read the above value ("4444"), even after a boot, even the key not showing in regedit. And if I create it by hand key AAA/wav with a distinct value (666), t, it continues Reading the old value = 444.
Thanks

Have you ever shut down the computer while still performing a backup?
If not, then ignore this post.
Otherwise, this program may be helpful.
It is registered in the startup folder after a query and then runs with every system start and ends only with system shutdown.
Whenever a backup activity begins or ends, a message is generated.
This prevents the computer from being accidentally turned off while a backup is still active.

good morning everybody.
today i liked to share an small example with you
which it an function to read the registry values as an array
the result array is 2d array witch
$a_array[n][0] = value name
$a_array[n][1] = value Data
$a_array[0][0] = values count
here's the function
#include <Array.au3> #include <WinAPIReg.au3> #include <APIRegConstants.au3> Local $a_array = _RegReadToArray("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run") If @error Then MsgBox(16, "error", @error) Exit EndIf _ArrayDisplay($a_array) Func _RegReadToArray($s_RegKey) Local $a_KeySplitInfo = StringSplit($s_RegKey, "\\", 2) If UBound($a_KeySplitInfo) <= 1 Then $a_KeySplitInfo = StringSplit($s_RegKey, "\", 2) If UBound($a_KeySplitInfo) <= 1 Then Return (1, 1, 0) EndIf Local $H_KeyInfo = "", $s_RegKeyInfo = "" Switch $a_KeySplitInfo[0] Case "hklm", "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE", "hklm64", "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE64" $H_KeyInfo = $HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Case "hkCu", "HKEY_CURRENT_USER", "hkCU64", "HKEY_CURRENT_USER64" $H_KeyInfo = $HKEY_CURRENT_USER Case "hkCr", "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT", "HKCR64", "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT64" $H_KeyInfo = $HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT Case "HKU", "HKEY_USERS", "HKU64", "HKEY_USERS64" $H_KeyInfo = $HKEY_USERS Case Else Return SetError(2, 2, 0) EndSwitch _ArrayDelete($a_KeySplitInfo, 0) $s_RegKeyInfo = _ArrayToString($a_KeySplitInfo, "\") Local $H_KeyInfoOpen = _WinAPI_RegOpenKey($H_KeyInfo, $s_RegKeyInfo, $KEY_READ) Local $A_KeyInfo = _WinAPI_RegQueryInfoKey($H_KeyInfoOpen) If @error Then Return SetError(1, 1, 0) _WinAPI_RegCloseKey($H_KeyInfoOpen) Local $A_RegVal[$A_KeyInfo[2] + 1][2] Local $iV = 1, $s_RegRead = "" While 1 $s_RegVal = RegEnumVal($s_RegKey, $iV) If @error <> 0 Then ExitLoop $s_RegRead = RegRead($s_RegKey, $s_RegVal) If Not (@error) Then $A_RegVal[$iV][0] = $s_RegVal $A_RegVal[$iV][1] = $s_RegRead EndIf $iV += 1 WEnd $A_RegVal[0][0] = UBound($A_RegVal) - 1 If $A_RegVal[0][0] >= 1 Then Return $A_RegVal Else Return SetError(3, 3, 0) EndIf EndFunc ;==>_RegReadToArray
i hope you benefit from it

Hi,
I wondered why negative integers I wrote into registry (e.g. negative x-coordinates of a gui if using two monitors and the right one is the main one) wouldn't return right when reading. Now I know: it is saved as an unsigned integer (without algebraic sign). So here is a snippet that is changing unsigned to signed integer:
Global Const $g_sRegKey = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\" & @ScriptName ; path to registry RegWrite($g_sRegKey, "Value", "REG_DWORD", -2147483647) ; write some negative integer into registry; -2147483647 highest possible negative integer , 2147483648 highest possible positive integer if talking of 32bit Local $sValue = RegRead($g_sRegKey, "Value") ; read out registry ConsoleWrite("Value: " & $sValue & @CRLF) ; show real value in console Local $sResult = _SignedInteger($sValue) ; change to signed value ConsoleWrite("Result: " & $sResult & @CRLF) ; and show it in console Func _SignedInteger($iUnsignedInteger) Local $iSignedInteger If $iUnsignedInteger > (2^31) Then ; then it means a negative integer $iSignedInteger = $iUnsignedInteger - (2^32) Else $iSignedInteger = $iUnsignedInteger EndIf Return $iSignedInteger EndFunc It took me some time to find out the problem and so I hope I can help somebody with this.
Regards, Conrad

Hello,
the following script is running quite nicely for a friend of mine doing a year of work and travel to have a backup at home for all the pics and movies taken with her mobile phone,
The facts:
At home: a VMWARE virtual machine with dropbox installed for her DB account
On-the-Road: One mobile phone, Camera Uploads are activated for her dropbox account, one Laptop.
The idea is to have a copy of *ALL* pictures and movies taken with the mobile phone *OUTSIDE* the dropbox folder, so that the DB Max Size is never exceeded.
The script is running at home and doing this:
Copy all content from the "Camera Upload Folder" within the dropbox folder to some folder *OUTSIDE* the DB folder Move all content from the "Camera Upload Folder" do some other folder *INSIDE* the DB folder to indicate, that the backup copies at home were done successfully
Dropbox is also installed on the Laptop she has with her. So on the Laptop she checks from time to time the destination folder inside the dropbox folder and moves the pics / movies on the laptop to some other folder outside the dropbox as well. By that final step the images are moved out of the dropbox on the mobile phone as well, so that there is always space left to sync more pics / movies.
As moving pics / movies out of the dropbox folder on the laptop doesn't touch the copies in the mobile phone's "Gallery", she has all the pics / movies at all three locations:
Mobile Phone Laptop VM at home
The folder names propably are different for non-German localized Windows and Dropbox, just modify them to meet your localization.
