Yes, and you don't actually have to create a .reg file to edit the registry as cmd has a command especially for that. The command is 'reg', type 'reg /?' for more info on it.



Examples:



reg add HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentV?/v EXAMPLE /t REG_SZ /d ';C:\Program Files\examplefolder\examplefile.bat';



This command would add a string value to the registry path 'HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current?(which, by the way, is the registry folder which runs stuff at startup), the value would be named 'EXAMPLE' and it's value would be ';C:\Program Files\examplefolder\examplefile.bat';. This means that after executing this command, a file called examplefile.bat would start every time I boot up my computer.



This can be used to change, add, delete, and do a plethora of other things to do registry. A word of warning though, changing anything in the registry could have dire consequences, use with caution :PHow to make a batch file to change a win XP registry value?
Yes, it can be done. Your batch file should:



1) Create a '.reg' file containing instructions to regedit to tell it what to do.



2) Run regedit on the '.reg' file.



3) Remove the '.reg' file.
