You can use regedit to silently import registry settings. This can be useful to setup defaults for applications, or apply registry tweaks for various Windows settings.
<package
id="sample_registry"
name="Shows a registry entry"
revision="1"
priority="0"
execute="once">
<check type="registry" condition="equals" path="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Test" value="1" />
<install cmd='regedit /s "%SOFTWARE%\test_registry.reg"' />
</package>
And the sample file:
test_registry.reg:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Test]
"Test Setting"=dword:00000001
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TEST2]
(In Win2k/XP adding "-" in front of a key name causes that key to be deleted from the registry.)
Normally, you would export this from regedit.exe.
