Multiple Reg Entries Into One

Split in in a few parts. For example delete

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\txtfile\DefaultIcon]
@=hex(2):43,00,3a,00,5c,00,55,00,73,00,65,00,72,00,73,00,5c,00,42,00,72,00,61,\
00,6e,00,64,00,6f,00,6e,00,5c,00,49,00,63,00,6f,00,27,00,73,00,5c,00,30,00,\
38,00,20,00,5b,00,31,00,5d,00,2e,00,69,00,63,00,6f,00,00,00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile\DefaultIcon]
@=hex(2):43,00,3a,00,5c,00,55,00,73,00,65,00,72,00,73,00,5c,00,42,00,72,00,61,\
00,6e,00,64,00,6f,00,6e,00,5c,00,49,00,63,00,6f,00,27,00,73,00,5c,00,31,00,\
36,00,20,00,5b,00,31,00,5d,00,2e,00,69,00,63,00,6f,00,00,00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\chm.file\DefaultIcon]
@=hex(2):43,00,3a,00,5c,00,55,00,73,00,65,00,72,00,73,00,5c,00,42,00,72,00,61,\
00,6e,00,64,00,6f,00,6e,00,5c,00,49,00,63,00,6f,00,27,00,73,00,5c,00,39,00,\
33,00,2e,00,69,00,63,00,6f,00,00,00

And try again. So you can find what it skipped!

So your suggesting I follow the process of elimination? I am currently AFK, I will try your sugestion shortly and get back to you. *fingers crossed*

yes try one at a time. If first 3 fail... it's a generic error.
Can you modify manually edit HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\http\DefaultIcon using regedit? just add a Q for example. Save it. then remove Q.

Success! Deleting the first 3 entries allowed me to merge the file sucessfully. Kaktussoft I want to thank you for your help and appreciate your time and effort. What do you mean by a "Generic Error"? To clearify your most recent post, you suggested I modify the HTTP key manually [Including an extra character], export & then open with notepad & remove the character & save. If I understand you correctly, why would this make a difference? Again, thank you so much for your time & help.

English is not my native language so maybe I wrote it the wrong way. I meant General error... sort of permission error on registry CLASSES_ROOT.. resulting in failing all writes.


I wanted you to edit some key manually and put it back to value it was. Just to check if it was writeable.

What if import the first one only? Second one only? third one only?

Hmm, when I merge each of them individually it was a success. I wonder why it wouldnt work when they were combined. When I write each line in notepad, there should be a blank line between each entry right?

Please post not working reg file (as attachment)
