Win10 Custom Settings Profile to deploy Binary Registry Values

smaxime — Wed, 02 Aug 2023 07:40:00 GMT

Hello,

I try to deploy an Binary Regedit Key via a Custom Setting Profile (HUB) in UEM.

Can someone provide an example on how to construct the data string in binary ?

I also see this post : Solved: Win10 Custom Settings Profile to deploy Multistrin... - VMware Technology Network VMTN

and this one : Configure registry with CSP - Digital Workspace

This is my current custom profile (not working):

<wap-provisioningdoc id="D6844F4D-BB07-4A10-87B3-EA62502D829F" name="customprofile">/
<characteristic type="com.airwatch.winrt.registryoperation" uuid="050d85b2-ab9e-4d62-a1dd-81b233debbd8">
<parm RegistryPath="HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\Excel.Sheet.12" Action="Replace">
<Value Name="EditFlags" Data="00000100" Type="BINARY" />
</parm>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>

Best regards

Good catch, I fought a similar battle last week before realizing CSP uses different naming for data types like DWORD instead of REG_DWORD. I doublechecked the code several times before I realized the difference.

My only thoughts are "WHY???"
