Difficulty converting a file

[OrcoXP]

I have a reg file that I am unable to convert with this tool.

Here is the file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

using the command:

REG2INF Explorer23.reg /linesonly

I get this:

-- AddReg --
; Reg2Inf v0.36 - http://tinyurl.com/fgqyf

-- DelReg --
; Reg2Inf v0.36 - http://tinyurl.com/fgqyf

; REG2INF: Conversion complete.

NOTE: I usually point the output into a file but when this did not originally work I tested it out without this option.

If I convert the same reg file with a BartPE reg file converter tool (found here (http://www.paraglidernc.com/12142.html)) using the UI and the option to append the info to a INF file.
I get this:

Maybe this is a bug...or maybe just a limitation.

[n7Epsilon]

The solution is extremely simple :D....
Replace hex(03) with hex(3) and it will convert correctly.

Thanks for pointing this out, I will fix this small bug in the next version of Reg2Inf.

Using BartPE's reg2inf won't work as expected because it converts the REG file into a special INF format that only BartPE Builder can recognize when building the BartPE registry hives.

[OrcoXP]

I tried your suggestion but it still didn't work.

[n7Epsilon]

Try with the new version 0.37, just posted it a few minutes ago.

[OrcoXP]

That did the trick thanks!

Hi n7Epsilon,
Same empty file error here:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\Yakutsk Standard Time]

00,00,00,00,00,00,00,03,00,00,00,05,00,02,00,00,00 ,00,00,00,00I have a very big reg file containing entries like this, but i get nothing. How can I overcome this?
Using turkish xp sp2, and converter 0,37.

[n7Epsilon]

I tried exporting the whole key and converting it and it worked for me.

Could you please PM me or post a link to that reg file that shows this problem here so I could diagnose the problem further ?

[MrNxDmX]

Thanks for your reply n7Epsilon. Here is the file that I tried to convert using reg2inf converter using send to menu. And the result is nothing. Its also included in rar file.

MD5: AFD5EE8B29186F2C8DFF5DDC55623E8E

Can the language of xp i'm using be the problem?

[MrNxDmX]

Hi again n7Epsilon.
Today I have set up a vmware, for testing boooggy's wmp11 addon. it is an english xp. Then i remembered this situation, and copied reg2inf to vmware. Then tried to convert this file. First it didnt work.
I had changed language locales to turkish from english, after first try, i remade them english.
Then tried to convert again, and it worked.

I tried another big registry file in my turkish xp, but didnt convert it. Then tried in english vmware, it worked.

I am a bit confused. I have dotnet 2.0 installed on my system.

Anyway, i finally can convert them, and this post was just for your information
:wink:

[n7Epsilon]

I am sorry for not replying, not enough time with finals and ISP troubles. I tried on my English XP and it converted fine.

I don't have Turkish XP...
Do you mean by changing the system locale changing the Regional Settings to Turkish ?

I don't have a VMware ready at the moment but I will investigate this as soon as possible. Thanks for the information.

[MrNxDmX]

No problems n7Epsilon. I have just wanted to inform you.
Yes, I mean changing system locale to turkish, in the Regional Settings.

Good Day

[user_hidden]
