Windows XP-10 – regedit – copy full key path

by techporvida1 . Updated 11 years, 4 months ago

Sometimes when documenting a regedit solution to an issue it would be great to just r-click and copy the path. I did some digging and found several methods including third-party solutions and others adding programming. I ran across an article to add Copy as Path to files and folders.

It’s a simple and elegant solution to copying a regedit path.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\
Create a New Key and name if Open With List
Create a new key under this one, name it Command
Edit the default in the command key to: cmd.exe /c echo %1|clip

The fully detailed description and other options can be found here:
