Topic: Registry Key For Current profile (cprofile)

[NirantarVidyarthee]

Which registry Key stores the name of the Current profile ("cprofile")?
I tried following, all reurn 'nil'

(vl-registry-read "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Autodesk\\AutoCAD\R18.1\\ACAD-9005:409\\Profiles")

(vl-registry-read
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Autodesk\\AutoCAD\R18.1\\ACAD-9005:409\\Profiles\\(default)")

In the registry when I double-click the key, the value is displayed. But I can't access it.

Code: [Select]

(strcat
    "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\"
    (vlax-product-key)
    "\\Profiles\\"
    (getvar "cprofile")
)   

Contrived example:

Code: [Select]

(vl-registry-read
    (strcat
        "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\"
        (vlax-product-key)
        "\\Profiles\\"
        (getvar "cprofile")
    )
    "UserName"   
)
>> "Margaret Atwood"

Code: [Select]

(getvar 'cprofile)
Returns the name of the current profile; I don't understand what else you are after.

Note the single backslash in the vl-Registry-Read calls... Which I already pointed out to the OP here.


I really dislike when others' time is wasted, for unnecessarily duplicated threads:
