Update Reg File with Launcher

Devo - October 20, 2008 - 10:41am

I know this is probably a simple task, but I can't figure out how to do it. I need the launcher to modify the registry entry for soulseek everytime the drive letter changes. It needs to go from

"InstallPath"="\\System\\Apps\\Soulseek\\Soulseek"

to whatever the current path of Soulseek portable is. I know this is pretty simple to do with ini's, but is there a way to do it with registry entries that require double \'s?

Also, what launcher should I look at to add to different registry entries to the same .reg file? I have HKCU/Software/Soulseek and HKCU/Software/Soulseek2

Thanks

You can use some of the

You can use some of the find/replace code in ATPad Portable. You would just place a second \ after $LASTDRIVELETTER

As for the double registry entries, I haven't played with it, and I can't think of the a launcher that does that. You would need to basically past the code twice. There was some posts about it in the past, though.
