i need a little help from you i want to edit a registry value data of value name " Default "

for example i want to change "(Default)" registry value of "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinRAR SFX" to "C:\1.ico"

so i open notepad copy paste this code in it

Code: [Select]
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00


[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinRAR SFX]
"(Default)"="C:\1.ico"
& saved it as 1.reg

then i runned the 1.reg file but it cant add the value "C:\1.ico" to "(Default)" of HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinRAR SFX

check it by opening registry editor

so i go through Visual Basic

created a windows application ,

added a button to it & on button1 click i added this code

Code: [Select]
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinRAR SFX", "(Default)", "C:\1.ico")

where it say (default) replace it with "" that will work

like this
Code: Select all
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinRAR SFX", "", "C:\1.ico")
