0 Alex Norris1709157664 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 WEM only supports importing HKCU keys that are not REG_BINARY and which have unique names - this may be what's causing the .reg file to not scan. 1 Link to comment

0 Paul Brown1709152452 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Bumped into this issue today. Found this topic while searching for a solution. What is not explained well is that the import will choke if you have multiple identical keys in the file you are working with. For example: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "TaskbarAnimations"=dword:0 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "IconsOnly"=dword:1 A file with a structure like that will fail the import with no error. If you modify it like this, then it will import without issue. [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "TaskbarAnimations"=dword:0 "IconsOnly"=dword:1 Link to comment
