Registry

Description

The Registry action encompasses a variety of activities capable of automating many common registry configuration and management operations, such as the ability to create, manipulate, rename and delete registry keys, sub-keys or value data. This action also allows registry values to be read and stored, which is ideal in situations when you may need to retrieve configuration data, for instance, to keep track of the software you install on the computer or save data collected from an external application so that it can be retrieved and used the next time the task is run.
