PURPOSE

I need to modify (DELETE/ADD) keys to a HKLU registry value using BigFix,

ACTION:

// PREFETCHING RunAsCurrentUser From IBM Share

prefetch RunAsCurrentUser.exe sha1:ee47505ebfb2790b9da8a20ed70e67158e9753d0 size:342528 http://software.bigfix.com/download/bes/util/RunAsCurrentUser-2.0.3.1.exe

utility __Download\RunAsCurrentUser.exe

waithidden __Download\RunAsCurrentUser.exe DOS “REG DELETE HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software*REDEACTED* /v REDACTED /f”

RESULTING ERROR

Command failed (Thread execution failed (2))

I would greatly appreciate any assistance that you can provide.

Thank you,

Matt Johnson

You can’t use “DOS” after the “RunAsCurrentUser.exe”, you should instead call “REG” directly, but you might need the full path to it.

Also, I would recommend using Local GPO instead, similar to this:
