Interconnect
- Copy Registry Key integration and auditing—Variables (dynamic data) and Events (recorded activity). Access the Windows Registry source and destination key names. Additionally, events indicating the success or failure of the key copying are logged.
Notes
- Note that in older Windows versions, Registry keys with included Registry values are copied without their security attributes and permissions. On Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008, Registry keys and values are copied with their security attributes; since Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, Registry values are copied without their security attributes.
- The difference between running the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Automation Workshop on 64-bit Windows is that some Windows Registry calls by the 32-bit Automation Workshop are transparently redirected to locations under
\Wow6432Node. For example:
…if a Registry call is made to access the Registry path:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software
…the 32-bit Automation Workshop is redirected to the location:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node
