EXTRACTING INI AND REGISTRY VALUES

General Remarks

When PC information is collected, and more specifically, when a hardware audit is performed, an unlimited number of keys from the registry or INI files can also be analysed using the REG/INI custom fields that have been defined.

Below are some examples that will help you define the REG/INI custom fields so the Agents can retrieve these values.

Registry Key

Example of registry values extraction:

Registry Key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

Sub-Key

SOFTWARE\Nico Mak Computing\WinZip\WinIni

INI Files

Example of INI file values extraction:

Section

mail

Key

mapi
