    Problem with batch file command to edit registry


    reg add HTLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DontDisplayLastUserName /t REG_DWORD 00000001 /f

    I am trying to hide all users at logon and I know this is where you change it but for some odd reason the syntax is wrong and I can not figure it out. Can someone please help me fix this?

    I figured it out all. My problem lied in a few small argument issues and missed quotation marks. For future references this is the correct syntax.

    reg add "HTLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System" /v "DontDisplayLastUserName" /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
