Reading windows registery

[Haddood]

I am looking for a way to read windows registery ... Any ideas?

I believe EventGhost can do this.

Actually you can do this with the python plugin.  It seems pretty straightforward.

Copy and paste the first example from this post in the python plugin windows and you will see that it works.  You should be able to figure out the rest depending on what keys you actually want to read or write.

that is a perfect solution ...  
otherwise would've been too much ... send the regkeys to EG... get back answers ...etc.
in fact for the moment I am using EG just to control my Samsung TV... and hoping to migrate that plug-in to VC python ... less programs ... less memory.. les trouble
