Adding to Registry question

[Richard25]

When I click on a .reg file, it asks me if I want to add it to the registry. Is there any way to add to the registry automatically without having the dialog box ask me if I want to update the registry?

all new users are invited to also review the Guides section.
click on the Registry FAQ link in the left border of this page, read thru further 3 pages, and you will arrive at:
<a target="_blank" href=http://www.winguides.com/article.php?id=1&page=4&guide=registry>http://www.winguides.com/article.php?id=1&page=4&guide=registry</a>,
scroll to the bottom and you will find a <font color=blue>/S</font color=blue> (=silent) option.
Actually this option is used for .BAT / CMD files.
In interactive mode, as you suggest in your questiion, you need to find key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile in the registry, go to Subkeys &gt; Shell &gt; Open &gt; command and add the option there.
