Overview

This LLB demonstrates a simplified and standardised method of manipulating your application's registry values and keys

 

Description

Using the registry for storing your application's setup values and other information is very convenient. However when you explore these possibilities you constantly run into warnings about danger of ruining your computer. The purpose of this project was to make registry access safer and easier. All editing is forced to occur in root key HKEY_CURRENT_USER, sub key SOFTWARE\MyKey preventing accidental alterations of other registry settings. Additional sub keys can be created in sub key MyKey.

 

 

 

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

  • Open LLB
