Access predefined keys of the windows registry

Access predefined keys of the windows registry

I would like a script or application to access windows xp registry going directly to predetermined keys.

By example . I execute the script and present three predefined windows registry keys :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\EventSystem\{26c409cc-ae86-11d1-b616-00805fc79216}\Subscriptions
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Mr. Enigma
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Keyboard Layout\Substitutes

Then I select the third and enter in the windows registry by that key.

Is it possible ?

Best Regards

Ath

Hm, Isn't the 'Favorites' feature of Regedit enough to fit that bill?

You could use the commandline tool reg.exe, that's available from Windows XP and up. A nice description is here, and create a simple batchfile doing what you need.
