What is wrong with the following procedure for inserting values into the
registry? I adapted it from
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896054/; the
idea is to enable CHM files in a certain directory. AFAIK, the only change I
did was to change the sample directory to my own requirements.
I created a batch file "permitirayuda.bat", with the following commands:
regedit.exe /s permitirayuda.reg
The corresponding registry file (permitirayuda.reg) contains the following:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HTMLHelp]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HTMLHelp\1.x\ItssRestrictions]
"UrlAllowList"="\\myserver\myapp\help;file://\\myserver\myapp\help"
When running the batch file, as far as I could tell, the keys are created, but the value (UrlAllowList) is not.
