I found a script that claims to read registry keys into an array here:

I tried to read a registry key and it's giving me all the values, instead of only the "*AutoAdminLogon*" value I requested. The code I'm using is:

#RequireAdmin
#include <Array.au3>
#include <_RegEnumKeyValEx.au3>

Global $a, $Error, $Extended, $KeyName
$KeyName = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon"
$a = _RegEnumValEx($KeyName, 128 + 256 + 32, "*","*AutoAdminLogon*")
$Error = @Error
$Extended = @Extended
ConsoleWrite("Return = " & $a & " - $Error = " & $Error & " - $Extended = " & $Extended & @LF)
_ArrayDisplay($a)   ;Does not show number of entries displayed

Thanks,

Docfxit

Please remove that code from you post and instead link to the UDF page. Have a little respect for UDF authors will you.

UDF List:

I have all the respect in the world.  That's why I gave him all the credit.  I thought it would be easier for someone to test my code.

I am very sorry if I didn't show enough respect.  I have removed it from my post.

Thanks for letting me know that was not appropriate.

Don't expect much help like this

; Return values .: Success  - Return Array List (See Remarks)
;                  Failure - @Error
;                  |3 = Invalid $sFilter

I found my first error before anyone else posted a resolution.  I fixed the error I found so I could get help on the remaining errors. 

In my first post I had 4 = No Value-Name(s) Found.

Thanks for you input,

I found the resolution to my question.

This is my current code that does work:

#RequireAdmin #include <Array.au3> 
#include <_RegEnumKeyValEx.au3> 
Global $a, $Error, $Extended, $KeyName 

$KeyName = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon"
$a = _RegEnumValEx($KeyName, 128 + 256 + 32, "AutoAdminLogon")
$Error = @Error
$Extended = @Extended
ConsoleWrite("Return = " & $a & " - $Error = " & $Error & " - $Extended = " & $Extended & @LF)
_ArrayDisplay($a)   ;Does not show number of entries displayed

Thank you,

Docfxit

Much appreciated, thanks. It's just duplicating code is bad news if the UDF is updated and then we have old outdated code laying around.

UDF List:

 
_AdapterConnections() • _AlwaysRun() • _AppMon() • _AppMonEx() • _ArrayFilter/_ArrayReduce • _BinaryBin() • _CheckMsgBox() • _CmdLineRaw() • _ContextMenu() • _ConvertLHWebColor()/_ConvertSHWebColor() • _DesktopDimensions() • _DisplayPassword() • _DotNet_Load()/_DotNet_Unload() • _Fibonacci() • _FileCompare() • _FileCompareContents() • _FileNameByHandle() • _FilePrefix/SRE() • _FindInFile() • _GetBackgroundColor()/_SetBackgroundColor() • _GetConrolID() • _GetCtrlClass() • _GetDirectoryFormat() • _GetDriveMediaType() • _GetFilename()/_GetFilenameExt() • _GetHardwareID() • _GetIP() • _GetIP_Country() • _GetOSLanguage() • _GetSavedSource() • _GetStringSize() • _GetSystemPaths() • _GetURLImage() • _GIFImage() • _GoogleWeather() • _GUICtrlCreateGroup() • _GUICtrlListBox_CreateArray() • _GUICtrlListView_CreateArray() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveCSV() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveHTML() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveTxt() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveXML() • _GUICtrlMenu_Recent() • _GUICtrlMenu_SetItemImage() • _GUICtrlTreeView_CreateArray() • _GUIDisable() • _GUIImageList_SetIconFromHandle() • _GUIRegisterMsg() • _GUISetIcon() • _Icon_Clear()/_Icon_Set() • _IdleTime() • _InetGet() • _InetGetGUI() • _InetGetProgress() • _IPDetails() • _IsFileOlder() • _IsGUID() • _IsHex() • _IsPalindrome() • _IsRegKey() • _IsStringRegExp() • _IsSystemDrive() • _IsUPX() • _IsValidType() • _IsWebColor() • _Language() • _Log() • _MicrosoftInternetConnectivity() • _MSDNDataType() • _PathFull/GetRelative/Split() • _PathSplitEx() • _PrintFromArray() • _ProgressSetMarquee() • _ReDim() • _RockPaperScissors()/_RockPaperScissorsLizardSpock() • _ScrollingCredits • _SelfDelete() • _SelfRename() • _SelfUpdate() • _SendTo() • _ShellAll() • _ShellFile() • _ShellFolder() • _SingletonHWID() • _SingletonPID() • _Startup() • _StringCompact() • _StringIsValid() • _StringRegExpMetaCharacters() • _StringReplaceWholeWord() • _StringStripChars() • _Temperature() • _TrialPeriod() • _UKToUSDate()/_USToUKDate() • _WinAPI_Create_CTL_CODE() • _WinAPI_CreateGUID() • _WMIDateStringToDate()/_DateToWMIDateString() • Au3 script parsing • AutoIt Search • AutoIt3 Portable • AutoIt3WrapperToPragma • AutoItWinGetTitle()/AutoItWinSetTitle() • Coding • DirToHTML5 • FileInstallr • FileReadLastChars() • GeoIP database • GUI - Only Close Button • GUI Examples • GUICtrlDeleteImage() • GUICtrlGetBkColor() • GUICtrlGetStyle() • GUIEvents • GUIGetBkColor() • Int_Parse() & Int_TryParse() • IsISBN() • LockFile() • Mapping CtrlIDs • OOP in AutoIt • ParseHeadersToSciTE() • PasswordValid • PasteBin • Posts Per Day • PreExpand • Protect Globals • Queue() • Resource Update • ResourcesEx • SciTE Jump • Settings INI • SHELLHOOK • Shunting-Yard • Signature Creator • Stack() • Stopwatch() • StringAddLF()/StringStripLF() • StringEOLToCRLF() • VSCROLL • WM_COPYDATA • More Examples...

Thank you for the post.

Hi All, however for the info, Microsoft says it will do so http://support.microsoft.com/kb/128731 that should be in autoit '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

Ciao.

 

Thank you for the post.

If I understand you correctly,  I should be using SaveRegistryKey script instead of _RegEnumKeyValEx.au3 ?

Does that also have the capabilty to RestoreRegistryKey?

Thank you very much for your scripts.

Hi Docfxit,AutoIt Native Function are the fastest ehhhhh, but in this case have bugs, see the limit of 512 levels of the log regkeyname, so I think is better to use (SaveRegistryKey) RegistryEx.au3, it may be slower but more safer, however I've updated the RegistryEx.au3 added _WinAPI_RegRestoreKey

remember the main purpose of these scripts is more to show how to do something, after each user will be able to do even better, I mean even you yourself can checkeditupdateimprove the script, adapting it according to your requirements etc etc

 

Ciao.
