run a reg file via Scripts
Hi
im trying to run this reg file but on some machines it pop ups for confirmation and on some this is not running .
Launch a program... $(KACE_SYS_DIR)
File: cmd.exe
Parameters: /c regedit /s "$(KACE_DEPENDENCY_DIR)\ProxyEnable.reg"
also how can enable proxy settings for all users logging into a computer via KACE?
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings] "ProxyEnable"=dword:00000001 "ProxyServer"="10.10.0.10:8008" "ProxyOverride"=""

If it's prompting UAC, it's trying to write to a protected area, either HKLM or a user other than the currently logged-in one.
I say again: Group Policy is the way to do this.

Any client I've ever been at has done this via Group Policy.

I deploy registry keys via Offline Kscript. I upload the reg file and a simple batch file which executes the registry command. I then execute the batch file from the script.

I upload my .reg and .bat files
For Task 1:
Verify - Run a batch file (input my batch commands)
That's it. I haven't run into any UAC problems with my scripts so I can't help you there. - rockhead44 6 years ago

If you are trying to write to the HKCU hive, you will need to run it as the current user or for a selected account.
Have you tried using the "Set a registry value" option or REG ADD in scripts instead of trying to import?This should get you around the UAC problem.

Assuming its the k1 you are working on why don't you use a script to deploy it to your
machine's.
Choose new script .....add new task...... set registry value.
You can set any reg keys there
e.g
Run the Online Shell Script and KScripts in the context of specified credentials. - rahimpal 6 years ago
