    Change registry value in dynamically created registry key

    Plugging values into the registry often has no effect until the user logs off, then on again. Furthermore, the keys and values you mention differ from machine to machine. On my installation they look quite different.

    I suggest you have a look at nircmd.exe (or nircmdc.exe). It might do what you want without any coding effort. If this fails then I'm prepared to write a script for you according to your precise specs, but only after you have done some manual tests on several
    different PCs.

    ForcedReboot Registry Key Value

    Hi Daniel,

    ForcedReboot is one of the subkeys in the registry. Subkeys contain data entries called values. The presence of a value on a key is a form of data that an application requires for it to run. An application opens a key and uses the values associated with
    the key to perform specific functions. A key can have any number of values, and the values can be in any form.

    You can visit these links for further information about registry values:


    Note: We do not recommend navigating and editing the values of the keys and subkeys in the registry. Changing the values of the keys and subkeys in the registry might cause serious system issues.

    We would like to ask if you are experiencing any issues on your Windows device. Since you are interested on finding what the value of a subkey stands for, we think that you are trying to troubleshoot your computer. If in case you are having any errors or
    issues with your Microsoft products, let us know so that we could assist you further.

    We are looking forward to your response.

    Error Removing Registry Key?

    If it is not causing you any issues i would suggest for you you not alter the Registry.

    Altering the Registry in any form of way may cause your Operating System to stop responding and or functioning.
