Update Windows Registry for all users
Solution 1:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
is a pseudo registry hive that contains both the keys found in the per-user settings under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes
and the system-global settings under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes
. Writes to the HKCR
pseudo hive go to the per-user settings under HKCU
. If you want to update the system-global settings you should write to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes
instead.
