Register
Registers a program so that it has special execution characteristics.
Syntax
register FileName [{/system|/user}] [/v]
Parameters
FileName : Specifies the name of the file you want to register.
/system : Registers filename as a system global resource.
/user : Registers filename as a user global resource.
/v : Displays additional information.
/? : Displays help at the command prompt.
Remarks
Only administrators can use register.
Some complex applications and subsystems need to execute in a system global context to establish resources that are common to more than one logon.
Registration data for a program is recognized only when the program is installed. If you issue a register command for a program that is already installed, the changes take effect the next time the program is installed.
