Changing (default) reg key

FanBoy · 8th June 2003, 17:32

Hey, this has prolly been asked before but i cant seem to find the answer, or a way round it.

If i want to change the (default) key in a registry key I use:

WriteRegStr HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT ".plop" "(Default)" '"APlop"'

for example. But this creates a new key called (Default), I need to change the value in the current one. Is there a UpdateRegStr sorta thing? Thanks

Use an empty string instead of "(Default)".
