Manage Registry Keys

Description

These methods provide facilities to manage (create and destroy) keys within the Windows registry. The methods provide different ways to specify the key, using either a collection of strings or a previously resolved registry path (RegistryKeyPath). The latter are typically used internally within the package and are available for users who apply operations repeatedly to the same key. The simple string form is more convenient for interactive use.

flushRegistryKey can be used to force any changes to be immediately reflected in the registry.

Methods

path = "character", key = "ANY"

specifies the path to the new key as either a string or a character vector of strings.

path = "RegistryKeyPath", key = "missing"

specifies the path and name of the new key as a RegistryKeyPath object.

path = "RegistryKeyPath", key = "character"

identifies the folder in which the new key is to be created via a RegistryKeyPath and the name of the new key as a simple string.
