So, you downloaded a program, that you yourself stated you don't know what it does because you couldn't be bothered to read the source code. Then you ran it on your main computer rather than in a sandbox or virtual machine. Then it deleted everything on your computer that wasn't locked when you ran this unknown program. And you're mad at someone else because you were too lazy/stupid/disinterested to figure out what it would do, and were too stupid to run it in a sandbox/virtual machine, am I getting this right?

Just for learning, looking or leaving Search for a value in the registry. Take it and modify like you want #include <GUIConstants.au3> GUICreate("Test",500,80) $info_text = GUICtrlCreateLabel("",10,10,480,60) GUISetState() Global $found = "" SearchReg("HKCU","Version") ;SearchReg("HKLM","ProductName") GUIDelete() Msgbox(0,"",$found) Exit ;***************************************************** ; Recursive search-function ;***************************************************** Func SearchReg($startkey,$searchval) Local $startkey,$val,$i,$key,$searchval,$z $i = 1 While 1 $key = RegEnumKey($startkey,$i) If @error <> 0 Then ExitLoop GUICtrlSetData($info_text,$startkey & "\" & $key) $z = 1 While 1 $val = RegEnumVal($startkey & "\" & $key,$z) If @error <> 0 Then ExitLoop If StringInStr($val,$searchval) Then $found = $found & "ValueName, " & $startkey & "\" & $key & ", " & $val & @LF $readval = RegRead($startkey & "\" & $key,$val) If $readval <> "" And StringInStr($readval,$searchval) Then $found = $found & "Value, " & $startkey & "\" & $key & ", " & $val & ", " & $readval & @LF $z = $z + 1 WEnd SearchReg($startkey & "\" & $key,$searchval) $i = $i + 1 WEnd ;Sleep(1); just 1 idle milli second -> not used at the moment EndFunc Regards Holger

Have a go with the current Beta v1.0.29.4 It will create shorter Var and Func names and sequences them individually. v1.0.29.4: - Fixed issues with relative includes using .. in the filename. - Changed the /OM variable length

BrewManNH is correct as far as I can see. You have exactly one person to blame for this: You. Instead of learning your lesson and looking into sandbox or virtual machine software your response is to make an ass of yourself on their forum? Someone explain to me why I shouldn't preemptively block this user now just so I don't have to later when they do something stupid and then decide to blame somebody from our forum for it?

Maybe this function helps:

ALTIN, seangriffin's FileSystemMonitor UDF will let you know when anything happens in a folder. I have successfully used it to detect a newly created/changed file in order to trigger a function within a script. Give it a try and see how you get on. You know where we are if you run into problems. M23
