A task to change the start page of Internet Explorer via registry is not working using the below script. The action says completed but the change was not applied on the targeted machine’s registry.
@akira is correct, “HKCU” doesn’t have a meaning outside of a logged-on user session; and with multiple users logged on, they all have separate “HKCU” hives.
Additionally, because BigFix is a 32-bit client, I’m not sure how you’d address HKCU\Software vs HKCU\Software\Wow6432Node. For the HKLM\Software you can distinguish between “registry”, “native registry”, “x32 registry”, and “x64 registry”, but I’m not sure there are similar objects in User context.
You might try looking at applying these settings through Local Group Policy…
The HKU hive should respond the same way as the HKLM hive does to the x64/x32 registry commands as we ask the OS to switch based off that base inspector.
