Hi, I'm trying to associate a type of file to an app from a batch file using reg add command: reg add hklm\software\xxx /ve /t reg_sz /d ""%cd%\prog.exe" "%1"" but it doesn't write in the registry exactly what I want.I think something is wrong in the /d switch! can you help?
PS:I want something like this to be written in the registry but only using the reg add command:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\xxx.Document\shell\open\command] ""="\"C:\\Program Files\\app.exe\" \"%1\"" and [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\xxx.Document\shell\open\ddeexec] ""="[open(\"%1\")]"
I wrote a script that creates a reg file on-the-fly, and it works,but I need to do the same only using the reg add command...help me please!
