Question : Unable to Write Registry Key with .bat file on startup

I created a .bat file and set it on startup.

The .bat file references a .reg file
regedit /s filename.reg.

However, this doesn't appear to be working.
If I click on the .bat file it will set of the .reg file.

If I edit the .bat to say
notepad.exe
regedit /s filename.reg

The notepad starts but the key is not written.

Any ideas?

Answer : Unable to Write Registry Key with .bat file on startup

A couple of suggestions:

1. Try putting the full path to filename.reg

2. Startup scripts are run as system so you can run as system by doing the following:
- Open CMD
- run this command "at 00:55 \interactive cmd" where 00:55 is the current time + 1 minute
- run the script in the nice new command window (should have svchost in the label)
- check for errors.
