kitoy Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 (edited) Hi, I found this script for exporting registry file as text from Smartee. https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/126953-export-several-registry-keys-into-one-file/ $path = @DesktopDir & "\registry.txt" $cache = "" ShellExecuteWait("regedit.exe", "/e "&$path&" HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.ico") $cache &= FileRead($path) ShellExecuteWait("regedit.exe", "/e "&$path&" HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.eml") $cache &= FileRead($path) ShellExecuteWait("regedit.exe", "/e "&$path&" HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.txt") $cache &= FileRead($path) FileOpen($path, 2) FileWrite($path, $cache) FileClose($path) However, it is not working in my end. I can only export blank text. I am trying to export the registry from a distiller. I also noticed the extensions(.ico, .eml and .txt) at the end of the key. However, this is not available in the distiller. Any suggestions? $path = @ScriptDir & "\registry.txt" $cache = "" ShellExecuteWait("regedit.exe", "/e "&$path&" HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Distiller\10.0\WatchedFolders\") $cache &= FileRead($path) FileOpen($path, 2) FileWrite($path, $cache) FileClose($path) Edited July 27, 2016 by kitoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudw2k Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) Fair enough, looking pretty decent for a beginner. Thanks for taking the time to respond and explain your solution. edit: to get the version you should be able to enumerate it in the registry. This is an example from the helpfile to step through a key and enumerate the subkeys. Could be adapted to your script. Let me know if you need a hand. #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> Local $sSubKey = "" For $i = 1 To 10 $sSubKey = RegEnumKey("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE", $i) If @error Then ExitLoop MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "SubKey #" & $i & " under HKLM\SOFTWARE: ", $sSubKey) Next Edited August 2, 2016 by spudw2k Spoiler Things I've Made: Always On Top Tool ◊ AU History ◊ Deck of Cards ◊ HideIt ◊ ICU ◊ Icon Freezer ◊ Ipod Ejector ◊ Junos Configuration Explorer ◊ Link Downloader ◊ MD5 Folder Enumerator ◊ PassGen ◊ Ping Tool ◊ Quick NIC ◊ Read OCR ◊ RemoteIT ◊ SchTasksGui ◊ SpyCam ◊ System Scan Report Tool ◊ System UpTime ◊ Transparency Machine ◊ VMWare ESX Builder Misc Code Snippets: ADODB Example ◊ CheckHover ◊ Detect SafeMode ◊ DynEnumArray ◊ GetNetStatData ◊ HashArray ◊ IsBetweenDates ◊ Local Admins ◊ Make Choice ◊ Recursive File List ◊ Remove Sizebox Style ◊ Retrieve PNPDeviceID ◊ Retrieve SysListView32 Contents ◊ Set IE Homepage ◊ Tickle Expired Password ◊ Transpose Array Projects: Drive Space Usage GUI ◊ LEDkIT ◊ Plasma_kIt ◊ Scan Engine Builder ◊ SpeeDBurner ◊ SubnetCalc Cool Stuff: AutoItObject UDF ◊ Extract Icon From Proc ◊ GuiCtrlFontRotate ◊ Hex Edit Funcs ◊ Run binary ◊ Service_UDF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrewManNH Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 You should just use Return instead of using the Call statement, you're recursing back to the calling function.

kitoy Posted September 30, 2016 Author Share Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) @BrewManNH, thanks for the suggestion. If Not FileExists ($progfile) Then MsgBox(48, "WARNING!", "Incorrect version of Acrobat Distiller was selected." & @CRLF & "Please try again.") Return $_run EndIf @JLogan3o13, thanks for this. Here is what I came up to.

I also added ".0" since Program/Registry Files are using decimal points. i.e. 10.0, 11.0 Case $_run Local $aTemp = StringSplit(GUICtrlRead($dropSelect), " ") $distversion = ($aTemp[$aTemp[0]]) If $distversion > 0 Then $distversion = $distversion & ".0" EndIf I am also thinking to use .ini file so other people can easily add more versions in case new versions will be available. I will post it when I'm done. Edited September 30, 2016 by kitoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense, you could then read the file into an Array, and then simply do something like this to populate the control: GUICtrlSetData(-1, _ArrayToString($aArray, "|")) But, you could also save yourself the hassle of them having to choose the version, and just grab it yourself: Local $sKey = "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Adobe" Local $sSubKey, $sPath For $i = 1 To 100 $sSubKey = RegEnumKey($sKey, $i) If @error Then ExitLoop Else If StringInStr($sSubKey, "Acrobat Distiller") Then $sPath = $sKey & "\" & $sSubKey & "\WatchedFolders" EndIf EndIf Next "Profanity is the last vestige of the feeble mind.

Moderators JLogan3o13 Posted October 2, 2016 Moderators Share Posted October 2, 2016 I was intimating that if you used a file, you could read that file to an array, then use the line provided to fill your control with the data.
