Hi All,

Anybody know if Kixtart does / will / never will support the Reg_Qword type? I was hoping to use it

Data represented by a number that is a 64-bit integer. This data is displayed in Registry Editor as a Binary Value and was first introduced in Windows 2000.

Okay, but to answer the question.

I don't know if it's supported with KiXtart or not. I don't see QWORD listed in the lasted v4.52 Word Document that ships with KiXtart.

Yeah,

I thought for a second that if it was displayed as Binary data in regedit, why couldn't we write it as REG_BINARY.
But this will most probably fail

Don't have any 64Bit Windows systems to test it on.

eh?
you think it has anything to do with 64bit windows?
it's a 64bit integer, but it nowhere says it has relation to 64 OS.

just my 1,74 cents (that's approx 10 finnish pennies)

Artie,

Have you got some examples of QWORD registry values?

We can probably create a UDF to read/write them while you are waiting for an enhancement, but as the stock Regedit does not allow the creation of QWORD values it's a bit of a bugger to test.

Hi Richard,

Below is an export I did from the registry on a workstation. The "LastModified"=hex(b) Item is what appears as a REG_QWORD.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Safer\CodeIdentifiers\262144\Paths\{020bdcdf-b69c-4b3e-9e59-b1398714fdce}]

"LastModified"=hex(b):48,c6,fd,c1,a5,5c,c6,01

"Description"=""

"SaferFlags"=dword:00000000

"ItemData"="*.bat"

Get your hands on a vista box, Richard

The vista regedit supports the REG_QWORD.

REG_QWORD was first introduced in Windows 2000 to support 64-bit integers. you should be able to read REG_QWORD via wMI. See fnWMIWriteValue() - Write to a local or remote registry using WMI with authentication and StdRegProv . The funy thing is that accordign to Microsoft, even though there is a GetQWORDValue/SetQWORDValue it is not supported on any OS besides vista
