With RegEdit open.

On the right panel where the Name/Type/Data is displayed.

How do I list all Names of the values for a given registry key?

The closest I got is the listing of the data values.

Hey James,

Is this what you’re looking for?

names of values of key “HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run” of registry

Hey James,

Is this what you’re looking for?
names of values of key “HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run” of registry

Agreed that should work.

My issue is I am only getting results of 1 value name when 6 exist. This si also under HKCU. Not sure if that matters.

Hey James,

Unfortunately, HKCU has some unique challenges. Have a look at this thread: http://forum.bigfix.com/viewtopic.php?id=1909

Thank you for the link!

adjusted my rel. to include “of current user keys (logged on users) of registry” instead of defining HKCU. Works like a champ now.

####Additional Requirements####

Now that I have located the names of values under a reg key, how can I print the value of those values? Also is there there a way to convert the hex to text?

Essentially this is what I’m wanting to do, but it is erroring out…

names of values whose (name of it as lowercase contains “bla”) of key “Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Connections” of current user keys (logged on users) of registry and values whose (name of value of it as lowercase contains “bla”) of key “Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Connections” of current user keys (logged on users) of registry

If this worked it would still report back hex and text.

Are you looking for something like this?

(names of it, hexadecimal string (it as string)) of values whose (name of it as lowercase contains “bla”) of keys “Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Connections” of current user keys (logged on users) of registry

I don’t have any values under that key at the moment so it’s not tested very thoroughly, but it should return the name-value pairs. I’m pretty sure hexadecimal string will convert the hex to a readable string…

I’m trying to make this work to enumerate any registry values listed under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Resiliency\DisabledItems. They are listed in Hex so they will also need to be converted to string. If no values should return .

Basically we keep having Outlook plug-ins getting disabled and I need an analysys or property to list all currently disabled Outlook items and an task to re-enable them (delete these registry keys).
