Hi,
I've created a Group Policy on my Default Domain Controllers Policy to Create or Update a registry key in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER hive. The root of the registry key does not exist at the time the policy is run.
I.e., I want to create HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MyWare\SubKey\AnotherSubKey
The registry GPO is placed under the "User Configuration\Preferences\Windows Settings\Registry" section of the GP Management Editor.
In some cases the "MyWare" hive does not exist but this is what I have placed in the "Key Path" text box.
In the Value name section, I have set the name of my value with the data (which should be created under the Hive AnotherSubKey)
Will the GPO know to create the sub-hives before creating the value if the parent hives do not exist?
If the above is correct, I have tried executing a gpupdate /force in my test environment only to see the GPO never take affect?
Thanks - Greg
