Reading path from registry that contains an environment variable

(imported topic written by lmpymilk91)

Take a look at the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\CrashControl

I would like to be able to use the values of “DumpFile” and “MinidumpDir”

like I would with

exists file (value “” of key “HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000}\InprocServer32” of registry as string as lowercase)

I don’t want to presume the variable is %SystemRoot% as I might want to use this code again for another variable at another time.

Thanks

How about this?

exists file (expand environment string of (value “DumpFile” of key “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\CrashControl” of registry as string))

I don’t think it could be better.

Thanks again Ben
