[Resolved] -- Registry issue when key is not found

[HumperHard]

I am trying to check some file extensions to make sure they have the "open confirm" and "always show extention" boxes checked. I am having issue with the application not catching if the key is not there. Basically if the AlwaysShowExt is not found it doesnt add it to the list of findings. What am I over looking here?

#Include <GuiButton.au3>

GuiCtrlSetData($progressbar, $progress)

Just test @error flag after RegRead()

Return Value

Success: Returns the requested registry value. @EXTENDED is set to the type of the value $REG_... . These types are defined in the "Constants.au3" include file. 

Failure: Returns "" and sets the @error flag: 

 1 if unable to open requested key 

 2 if unable to open requested main key 

 3 if unable to remote connect to the registry 

 -1 if unable to open requested value 

 -2 if value type not supported

I have tried that but with no luck.. I might be doing it wrong....

If $checker2 <> "" & @error <> -1 Then
        $listOfFails = $x+1 & " : " & $keyArray[$x] & " : " & $checker2
        $progress = $progress + 10
        GUICtrlSetData($ExtList, $listOfFails)
        GuiCtrlSetData($progressbar, $progress)
EndIf

I also tried just:

If @error <> -1 Then
        $listOfFails = $x+1 & " : " & $keyArray[$x] & " : " & $checker2
        $progress = $progress + 10
        GUICtrlSetData($ExtList, $listOfFails)
        GuiCtrlSetData($progressbar, $progress)
EndIf
