Hello,

I made this simple RegWrite example.

expandcollapse popup

If IsAdmin() Then
    MsgBox(64, "Succes", "Admin rights detected! You can safely use the program.")
Else
    MsgBox(16, "ERROR", "No Admin rights detected! Program will exit now!")
    Exit
EndIf

$GUI = GUICreate("iRun - Make programs run at windows start!", 260, 145, -1, -1)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Select the file that sould be started at windows start.", 10, 10)
$Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 10, 30, 215)
$Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("...", 230, 28, 25, 23)
$Radio1 = GUICtrlCreateRadio("Always", 10, 60)
$Radio2 = GUICtrlCreateRadio("Only on this account", 10, 80)
$Button2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Go!", 10, 110, 100)
GUICtrlSetState($Radio1, 1)

GUISetState()
While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
    Case $nMsg = -3
        Exit
    Case $nMsg = $Button1
        $fod = FileOpenDialog("Select your file", @DesktopDir, "All Files (*.*)")
        If @error = 1 Then
        Else
            GUICtrlSetData($Input1, $fod)
        EndIf
    Case $nMsg = $Button2
        $Read_Radio1 = GUICtrlRead($Radio1)
        $Read_Input1 = GUICtrlRead($Input1)
        If $Read_Radio1 = 1 Then
            RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run", @UserName & " Run", "REG_SZ", $Read_Input1)
        Else
            RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run", @UserName & " Run", "REG_SZ", $Read_Input1)
        EndIf
        MsgBox(0, "", "File added!")
    EndSelect
WEnd

Actualy, I was bored

You cannot write to HKLM on Vista unless having full administrator rights.

You cannot write to HKLM on Vista unless having full administrator rights.

You can't edit any of the registry on vista for that matter.

Not even under HKCU?

That's not fix.

Fix would be using keyword:

#RequireAdmin

@SwiftBurns; you can do what ever you want with HKEY_CURRENT_USER on Vista. If using keyword #RequireAdmin in your script you have ability to do the same thing with HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT or HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG and not fully everything with HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_USERS.

Yes I know...

But if I put that in it, the user who use it, will not know why the scripts doenst work.

And will not work because... ?

Because you said:

nice tool. one thing from my side. if you don't select anything and click go it will add a blank line. maybe you can build in an error if nothing was selected. otherwise no sense in that.

thanks

Because you said:

That's why #RequireAdmin is used.

Try Vista somewhere, you may even like it
