File I/O And Registry :: Email Accounts Stored In Registry
Jul 14, 2011
Currently, I am try to get the email addresses that have been saved or stored by the user of the computer. This isn't the emails that the user has sent or received, or the contacts he/she has in his address book. Just simply the email accounts that have been accessed from the computer.I know that there are some locations stored in the registry that have the email account. The email addresses that are used on the current computer. I just can't seem to find them on my computer.I am not sure if the registry is the only place to find it or if it stored on the web browser such as internet explorer or google chrome.
Error is coming Registry Access is not allowed.While Opening a Key.
Code: Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click NewDelete("HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun", "Sonia") End Sub
I've had a bit of a look around the net and on the forums but I've yet to find an answer to my question. I've got Visual Basic 2008 Express and I'm trying to write some registry entries, I can write strings fine just using
I am writing an application that connects to a specific com port. This com port can change depending on how many physical ports are on the PC, and if other USB devices have installed com ports before this one.
I have the communication to the com port all working great, but I need to get the com port description not just the "COM#" which is all I currently get.
I found in the registry where the description is stored but am having trouble doing what I need.
there is a varied number of sub keys. The are numbered 0000-NNNN depending on how many ports you have. Inside each of these keys, there are multiple values, although I am only interested in one or 2 of them.
My problem is, that I do not know how to get a list of the subkeys (the 0000-NNNN keys/folders) from the original key I posted. I have looked through a few registry tutorials, and I can view the default value in the listed key, but I could not find how to list the subkeys of the listed key.
Does anyone have any sample code they could share that shows how I can get a listing of subkeys, and then run through those subkeys checking for a specific value in one of the strings contained in the subkey?
I have several programs that must write to HKLM in XP and Windows 7/64 Pro.The programs work in VB6 but not in VB.Net 2008 on target machines. It does works on our development machine. [code]I just cannot figure out why VB6 works but .net doesn't and fails only on the target machine not the development machine.
I just bet the answer to this question already exists, however I saw no search mechanism under the forum. Anyhow, I would like to change registry data, and this code is asking for an instance to the object.
Dim RegKey As RegistryKey = My.Computer.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwa reAnyDWGSoftwareDWGtoPDFProSettings", True) RegKey.SetValue("OutputPDFFileOpt", 1)
Finally, I want to apply this setting to the program on four different computers (local, and three others on the network).
Currently I am using this code to check for Firefox on a 32 bit machine
Code: Dim Firefox32 As String Firefox32 = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue _ ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMozillaMozilla Firefox 5.0in", "PathToExe", Nothing) MsgBox("The value is " & Firefox32)
If the value is found then the above message is fine, but if the entry is not found I want it to display a message like: "Firefox could not be found" instead of "The value is: " What code would make this appear?
I recently have been developing a app that uses the rijndael encrypt and decrypt function it stores dates in the registry (encrypted with a key using the algorithm)
for example Dim strOldDay As String = Key.GetValue("UserSettings", "").ToString the key was made using a private function called "createkeys"
example: dim current as currentdate Current.Day = DateTime.Now.Day.ToString Current.Day = Encrypt(pPassPhrase, Current.Day)
I want to get every single registry Name and value, which lies in HKEY_CURRENT_USER....Run(for getting and THEN deleting them to prevent run those programs at windows start). This is just for getting names.
Imports Microsoft.Win32 Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click[code].....
Well, this isnt working, when i run it in the vb and click button, it says system missing member exception: IWshShell3 hasnt been found.
Does anyone know how to use the registry section in Inno Setup to add a registry key that make a program start with windows when a Checkbox is checked in the setup wizard? If anyone know please step forward. I am getting near the launch of a program and it would be nice to include this feature.
I wrote an application to manage several installers and I wanted to throw in some registry settings as well. Unfortunately the following code is not writing to the registry, nor is it returning any exceptions.I'm running Visual Basic 2010 Express as administrator using Windows 7 64 bit, I can manually add the values, and I can add them from a .reg file manually but not even by calling the .reg file as a new process (it asks for permission, says it succeeded, but nothing changed).The key already exists, all I need to do is add two values.
I need to write data to a file, preferably in binary format, but I am unaccustomed with the concept. Where's the easiest place to get the basics? I could come here with a specific need, but I'm at the point right now where I am more willing to work within the confines of keeping it simple.
Here's what I know: 1. how to open a new file 2. how to specify the record length 3. how to close the file
Some specific questions:
Does the record length have to be constant throughout the file?
Can I read the nth record without reading the whole file?
I am trying to convert a VB6 App to VB.Net and I am stuck on this VB6 part. [code] The str_TChar looks like this.In the VB6 version it looks like the str_TChar is the length of the file in bytes, which is the sIMG variable and the string is in ASCII code?Can anyone tell me how to get the str_TChar in the VB.Net version to look like the VB6 version please?
I've got a .reg file and I want to add it to the registry when the user clicks a button. I've been searching the forums and I've seen allot of ways to do it without the .reg file, instead taking the values and putting them in the correct syntax, but I already have the .reg file and it would take far too much effort to place all the values in the correct syntax (The amount of values is huge). What is the code to do this? Do I have to somehow add the .reg file to the project?
I am working on a VB Console Application that takes an Autocad drawing type DWG and converts it to a PDF using a shell command that calls a third party application. In this case, acmecadconverter.exe from www.dwgtool.com. Then the PDF that is created needs a unique watermark, so I call a second application for that called pdftk.exe from www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/.
Everything works as intended, except when I try file names that contain spaces. The file system object does not tolerate spaces in the drawing file name. For instance, the following command gives me a system.io.filenotfoundexception...
I'm currently developing an editor for an AFL management sim.I want to be able to load three or four multidimensional arrays to the program, then save them to the same file. I tried the tutorial on here but got completely muddled up. Why can't it be easy like in VB6 When it was like 10 lines of code tops!
I am writing a program to calculate Pi to several hundred billion decimal places and this will require lots of GB of memory. I wrote a test program in VB2008 that saved the first 16 digits of Pi (without the decimal point) to both a text file and a random access file, just to be sure it was outputting the numbers properly. For reference the first 16 digits of Pi are:
Our program will start with the help of a FileSystemWatcher object. How can we check or the file is total copied, for example the file is 100 Mbyte it take a time it's ready for use. Idea:
Do While True Try N = testForUse(BigFile) If N = 1 Then Exit Do
I'm am developing a program for my computer and as I am using Windows 7 i have to execute it as admin every time I open my program. My IT teacher said I could set my program's permissions to 1, doing this the program would have admin privileges. But the thing is I don't know how to do it.
I am trying to build a simple project but I am about to lose my mind over it. The following is my code, I have tried to add the Microsoft Scripting Library more times than I can think but every time it shows FileSystemObject as undefined.[code]
Anyway what im trying to do is create a launcher for a program (a game) and i am in need of assistance on this one thing Basically its an options window, i need each of the custom options to be saved to the INI file, for example
I get the common error: " 'File Name' is currently being used by another process..."
My problem is that I have two forms. If the file doesn't exist in the one then it creates the file and opens up the other form, if the file exists it doesn't do anything, however, in the other form that it opens up I have it "attempting" to write text via StreamWriter. But my problem occurs when the StreamWriter tries to open the file for writing, that is when the program tells me that the file is currently being used by the other process.
In my first form I close the form via Form.Close and all I am using to create the file is System.IO.File.Create. Now I know that the System.IO.File.Create is causing the error because I have this process checking the very first thing on the program load. I am trying to find a work around the System.IO.File.Create but no luck here... I am trying to create a .txt ... lets say test.txt .
I want to search a directory and get all the names of the "Folders" within that directory and place them into a string array. Note: No Files just folders
