To import a reg file directly into the registry of the computer being worked on (from) WinPE, I was using ERD Commander 2005. When I try this from UBCD4W, the entries get added to the WinPE registry instead of the registry on the C drive. Any tricks for this?

you could redirect the registry by using runscanner.

There are several tools that are included in the project. I haven't had the chance to test them all and figure out which is the best at what you need to do. Some of them do need RunScanner to run but I think they are already setup to run it before they run.

OK, thanks!! I'll look into runscanner. I should have done that long ago!

with run scanner you can do this type of thing:

runscanner.exe /t 0 reg.exe /x test.reg


I dont remember the syntax for reg.exe right now but you get the idea.

This reminds me it would be great to add a shell extension so that you could right click on a reg file and the option would already be there to merge it into the target system.

Right now there is already something similar in the runscanner plugin I put up in my ftp ben. It's under extras. It already has a shell extension to run an app with runscanner by clicking on it.

I could simply add another to allow merging reg entries by right clicking on them. How does this sound?

Sounds very handy indeed!! Hope you can do it.
