Changing the base registry setting

The base registry setting controls where BlueZone stores information in the Windows Registry.

About this task

The default setting is 2, all data in HKEY_CURRENT_USER. This setting is necessary to support Windows workstations with restricted users. It is usually not necessary to change this setting and it is recommended that you leave this setting to 2.

Table 1 lists the possible registry settings.

Table 1: Base registry settings
Setting	Description
`0`	Global data in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE User Data in HKEY_CURRENT_USER
`1`	All data in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
`2`	All data in HKEY_CURRENT_USER

Important: If you change the base registry value to something other than the default value of 2, it is highly recommended that you change the value in all sites and launch folders and make the values the same for all.

Procedure

On the web server, navigate to the site and template folder that you want to change. For example:
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MySite\template
Open the default.ini file in any text editor.
In the [BlueZone] section, locate the BaseRegistry=2 entry.
Change the current value to the new value. Valid settings are 0,1, or 2.
Save and close the file.
From this point on, all sessions started from this launch folder use the new base registry setting.
If you have already created one or more launch folders, you must go to each existing launch folder and edit the default.ini file to the new base registry value.
