asked on

setting registry permissions by script

Hi,

I'm trying to set permissions on the registry throughout a network via a .bat or .vbs script.
The key that needs full access from everyone is \software\classes\clsid\{d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-4445535340000}\inprocserver32

This is to solve a problem i have when installing Serif DrawPlus X2 msi via group policy (error 1406, could not write value threadingmodel to key \software\classes\clsid\{d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-4445535340000}\inprocserver32. System error. verify that you have sufficient access to that key)

Thanks

On WinXP you cannot use script to change the security of the registry key.
This option is available only on  Vista.
Take a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384905(VS.85).aspx

There is a chance that this feature does exist in  the  XP SP3 but I  never saw it documented.
