Is there a way to make registry changes using command line? when i try the below command

reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BITS\Parameters /v Test /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d Test123 /f

it works fine in XP but in Vista, it is given "Access Denied" error.

Can anyone suggest how to do this in Vista?

remove UAC(user account control) can be found in the accounts section of control panel.

If vista has cmd.exe in the windows folder make sure you set that to run as Administrator.
