create a registry string and set the value

[usvpn]

Hi,

I want to create a registry string :

 

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Nico Mak Computing\WinZip\WinZip

 

And set the value of "0" to it.

 

So the shortest way is:

 

Dim ExtractKey As Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.CurrentUser.CreateSubKey("Software\Nico Mak Computing\WinZip\WinZip")

ExtractKey.SetValue("OpnExplFolder", "0")

ExtractKey.Close()

 

?

I'm doing it good and is there a shorter way? And .Close is necessary?

Thank you very much...

1) .Close is a good idea as without it the file is still open in the RAM. It is good practice.

 

2) i can't see a quicker way of doing it, unless you want to change your 'Explicit' option to off.

 

so don't change a thing in this case, as it is a small enough peace of coding anyway
