Rename Registry Key

[ben1234zz]

Hi

We have to rename the outlook profile name for all our users. We thought that setting up a logon script for the job would be best, the key is:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\Default

And we need to change it to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\USERNAME


I may be looking in the wrong place but cannot find a solution!

Thanks
B

By script, there is no in-place rename() by some built-in method. You have to make a custom function to create new keys ,copy old keys and values and delete the old keys.
