How to add multiple data to one string value in regedit

Solution 1:

The Registry's native functionality for storing multiple strings requires that the value type be REG_MULTI_SZ, not the REG_SZ that your value is currently using.

If your application will work with the REG_MULTI_SZ value type, change it as follows:

1. Rename the existing value to URL-old
2. Right-click the white space below the values and click New then Multi-String Value
3. Name the value (URL in your case)
4. Edit the value and on each separate line provide the various strings you require
5. Delete the original URL-old value once you've transferred all of the strings

It's of course possible your application expects multiple strings to be stored in a value with the REG_SZ type. If this is a case, the correct delimiter will be specified by the application. Common delimiters include the characters ;, | (pipe), and ,, but it's anybody's guess what the application expects.

There is no standard delimiter for separating strings in Registry data since that functionality is provided by the REG_MULTI_SZ value type.
