FWIW, it should also work with 'get' (even if the help doesn't currently mention that). Just for the archives, this is to allow values with '\' or '/' in them, e.g., -- *** DO NOT RUN THE BELOW, IT'S JUST AN EXAMPLE *** -- regtool -K'|' set '/HKLM/HARDWARE/DEVICEMAP/PARALLEL PORTS|\Device\Parallel0' '\DosDevices\LPT1' -- *** DO NOT RUN THE ABOVE, IT'S JUST AN EXAMPLE *** -- Hope this clarifies matters.
