Recompile

You need to recompile the launcher after you change it.

Please stop creating new topics for every single new related question. You could easily just keep this all in a single topic.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Stop!

Those [RegistryKeys] values will not do what you want by a long shot; I think (hope!) the "one" one will fail, the "three" one will fail (it doesn't exist), and the "two" one, if you run as admin, will attempt to remove that part of the registry.

Please go back and read the documentation and look at examples. You can't have [RegistryKeys] that are that coarse.

thanks Chris, for your

thanks Chris, for your Reply
i am new to this..and it's just is so simple to add a HKCU file
and when i add a HKLM with RunAsAdimin=force it does not work
and yes Every attempt I re-compile the "Launcher"
some in'site is that I think I had it working in VM Ware.
but was Weird...{Worked but when I Deleted HKLM.Key from the Registry
would not work again till I imported a fresh copy of the {PAF}
almost like the old copy was saving something to the .ini files
again now nothing works "HKLM" that is....Q: I asume that using
"RunasAdmin"=force is old by now.... What could Be My Problem!
and also what is wrong with naming then uno,dose.trese,.reg
it follows the format to inject the .reg file...does it not
I would just like to say thanks for your input... I think that
I and other Laman's will find it insitefull. Sorry i am not a coder

and will stop ,starting a new thrred for a new conversation..

post copies

jedione, please post copies of your launcher file as well as the reg files you're wanting to use to somewhere such as pastebin.com, and post the links here. That way we can help you better, since we can see what the problem is.

[SOLVED] I am an Idiot, here

[SOLVED] I am an Idiot, here is what was wrong.
my path in the .reg key was wrong. I found this by digging
deeper into [HKLM] and found my key so i figured "Hay it is working
just going to the wrong location. aha..quick edit to the .reg file
and all is good. NOW I Am Addicted. now I see that their is know room
for error when making a PAF file. I will now go study the "Launcher guide" thanks to those that tried to help me!
mayby this might help some one.......
