I have a situation with this software install.Its basically Macromedia based which has to save certain settings into a Hkey-Current-User. I already have a imported file that I click on to add these settings to users registry by logging on as each individually.
Does anyone know of a utility that can add/ Inject entries into user.dat without logging on OR loading the HIVE from regedit32.

I really cant do this if I have to modify 50 profiles manually.

Thanks in advance.

Have you tried using the macromedia msi package instead? It should elimate the local user settings problem.
 
I should have mentioned it earlier. We are still running on it so I cant use any MSI's.
I am specifically looking for some sort of a registry injector.
 
Making a "push" to the user directory key is not all that difficult.

You can use the logon script, Scheduled Tasks, or Group Policy to make the change.

This MS note describes how to use the underlying tools of the registry to make the "push" happen:
