Add an entry to [Registry]
section with ValueType
parameter set to multisz
. Use {olddata}
and {break}
tokens in the ValueData
parameter:
On a
string
,expandsz
, ormultisz
type value, you may use a special constant called{olddata}
in this parameter.{olddata}
is replaced with the previous data of the registry value. The{olddata}
constant can be useful if you need to append a string to an existing value, for example,{olddata};{app}
. If the value does not exist or the existing value isn't a string type, the{olddata}
constant is silently removed.{olddata}
will also be silently removed if the value being created is amultisz
type but the existing value is not a multi-string type (i.e. it's REG_SZ or REG_EXPAND_SZ), and vice versa.
On a
multisz
type value, you may use a special constant called{break}
in this parameter to embed line breaks (nulls).
[Registry]
Root: HKLM; Subkey: "SYSTEMCurrentControlSetControl"; ValueType: multisz;
ValueName: "PreshutdownOrder"; ValueData: "{olddata}{break}newline"
