0 maximus_ Posted January 21, 2011 Report post Posted January 21, 2011 Have you tried with creating package and program with command line REG IMPORT filename.reg ? If you want it to run silently launch it from batch file with the following command "regedit /s \\filepath\filename.reg". You can also probably just enter the above command when creating the "program" but I have not tried that. If you just create a .reg file and launch it via an advertisement the user will be promoted for the registry change. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 shipooo Posted January 22, 2011 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 well, here's what i've tried to do i created a backage that caontains the regfile.reg in it and created a program that is "regedite.exe /s regfile.reg" and also tries "reg import regfile.reg" and advertised it to the collection and the advertisement status said that the advertisement has been distributed and that the program was successfully completed baut when i checked for the registry key i didn't find it.and what makes me crazy is that it's telling me that it was completed successfully. did anyone try to distibute it in any other way?

0 Peter van der Woude Posted January 22, 2011 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 Is it on x86 or x64 machines? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 shipooo Posted January 22, 2011 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 it's 64x, would it matter? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Peter van der Woude Posted January 22, 2011 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 That's exactly what the problem is, because then the change gets redirected to the WOW64 directory. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 shipooo Posted January 23, 2011 Report post Posted January 23, 2011 but i exported the registry from a server that runs windows server 2008R2 and was trying to disrtibute it to a windows server 2008R2 server and i didn't find it either.i just wanna know if there are any steps more tha creating a backage that includes the registry and creating a program with either "regedit.exe /s regfile.reg" or "reg import regfile.reg" as a command line then advertise the backage to a collection?

0 Peter van der Woude Posted January 23, 2011 Report post Posted January 23, 2011 Then you have to workaround the 64-bit redirectioning. Easiest way is a Task Sequence with a Run Command line step and select Disable 64-bit file system redirection. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 shipooo Posted January 24, 2011 Report post Posted January 24, 2011 ok but when i advertise the task sequence wouldn't need a PE cd to start th e task sequence? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
