Comment: I'd like to read a variable (that contains a path)from registry and copy some files in to that path using a bathc file.
I have to questions:
1. How I can read sth from registry using a batch file.
2. How I can give that path to a batch file to copy some files in it. Thanks for your help

Reply: (edit)for reading a key value from registry, I've used:
REGEDIT /E MY_REG1.REG "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\SComputer\\ST\\General"
but it didn't work :(
sorry for my last message spelling errors! It's due to overworking ;)

Reply: (edit)Reason it didn't work is because it should have been like this instead.
REGEDIT /E MY_REG1.REG HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SComputer\ST\General Depending on what is there at that key would help a lot as to getting the path you want into a variable for file copying. Mind posting that specific string that includes the path? Is it unique in that entire key? We don't need the entire key unless it's very short - I don't happen to have that one or I might have offered the full solution.
