Hey there,
Does anyone know how to make a registry file so that I can easily change settings in the registry by just executing it?
For example, I have 4 different registry edits that I do if I need to do a hard reset and it is a pain in the ass to do them everytime. I want it so that i have 4 different reg files that i can execute that will help me edit them.
Is this possible?
Thanks

Hello professionals ;-)
i have to delete some registry keys during an softwareinstall with a cab file.
Can anybody tell me how to make an installationfile (like *.cab ore something else) deletes some keys in the registry!
whatfor?
i want to install some programs (like pocket plus) and make some configuration during cab file installation. so i looked into the registry what changes when i configurate pocket plus.
as i noticed there where som keys changed i can overwrite with the new values BUT there are some registry keys deleted also. How get them out???
is there any way ??
Have a look at creating a custom setup.dll file to include in the cab file.
You can certainly delete registry entries using it.
I don't know about deleting registry using cab files.
I think there is only options to allow or not to replace a registry key if exists during install.
Here a good link for .cab files Cab files
Apart that you can make your own install from PC to Pocket using RAPI. With that no problem to delete keys, copy files, add new keys ...
want to delete some keys bevore install
Thank's for your tips!

i am an absolute beginner in developing software!
i need an easy way to delete some regkeys during installation.
I think you can use the excellent scripting utility called nScriptM to achieve your goal. Simply run a search on this in google and you will come across a number of resources including the download location.

Destroying the registry so a given functionality dies, is not the same as enabling/disabling. I doubt these programs have simple on/off switches in the registry, so instead I suggest you reinstall them.
Set a browser such as the Resco Explorer to show files in ROM, then locate and execute the file loadvdisk.exe in the Windows folder. This will give you access to the Extended_ROM folder, located in root. From there you can reinstall what you want. Names of the files you will need are selfexplanatory, the rest you can find a description on here on forum, by using the search function.
Hi All,
I'm trying to make some registry changes on the Mogul and when I save the changes all is ok until I soft boot and then they go back to their default values. How can I prevent this?
I am also trying to save a file in the \Windows directory and it's giving me an access is denied message, how do I unlock this directory?
Thanks,
X2K
Which registry editor are you using?
Try using Resco explorer and registry editor pluggin:

I hope it helps.
I'm using PHM Regedit
Which registry key(s) are you trying to edit? Some keys don't get saved or get reset no matter what upon reboot.
Try this:
In [HKLM\System\ObjectStore] is a reg key "RegistryType=1", which means Hive based registry.
When you set it to "RegistryType=0", which means FILE based registry, all changes you do in the registry will stay there also if you reboot with device's reset button...
BUT AFTER YOU CHANGE THIS VALUE, FIRST REBOOT HAS TO BE DONE WITH SOME SOFTWARE, NOT WITH THE RESET BUTTON.
Subsequent reboots can be done with reset button then.

Great tip, even after a year since you posted it . Couldn't get rid of the default t-mobile -MDA Vario III aka kaiser- settings (PIE homepage e.g.), but you helped me out on this one
Hello all. I have tried to make the registry change (In [HKLM\System\ObjectStore] "RegistryType=1") to "RegistryType=0" mentioned above. That worked fine but I still can't save a change I'm trying to make. I bought MS Voice Command and was told to change the [HKLM\Software\OEM\Voicecommand path to \Program Files\MS Voice Command\voicecmd.exe. I can't seem to save the change. I have used several different registry editors including PHM, Resco and CeRegEditor. The displayed path (\Windows\SDDialer.exe) will not update. I'm using a Verizon XV6800 with WM 6.1 and the Verizon MR-1 update. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Can someone please advise of the steps I need to go through to create a file that I can run to update three registry key entries?
I need to reset these keys regularly and using Regedit each time is a pain.
I assume that I can create somesort of PPC batchfile that I can run under WM6 to make the changes each time I run it....
What's the best way of going about this?

Export the keys after you have changed them to a .reg file (in total commander this is accomplished by going to the key and copying it to a dir on the phone or storage card)....save the .reg's to a dir and click on them when you want to update the registry...you need to be using dotfred's task manager and have .reg files associated for that to work.
Brilliant. Thanks famewolf.....
Hi,
just wondering how do you make a Regedit file that you just click and it applies the registry edits you like, like for a normal pc (it has a blue cube icon on the pc). I would like to make one with the hacks I like, so I can just single click after a hardreset and be done with.
Thanks in advance !
this cant be done on the PPC..you will have to make a CAB file with the registery entries and then install it after hardreset
You can find some program to edit the registry. They can handle such files.
They are the same files than the one on your desktop I think.
