Examples

This example reads the value Name from HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MyApp and displays it in a MessageBox.

Dim readValue As Object
readValue = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue(
  "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MyApp", "Name", Nothing)
MsgBox("The value is " & CStr(readValue))

Remarks

valueName is not case-sensitive.

A registry key can contain one value that is not associated with any name. When this unnamed value is displayed in the registry editor, the string "(Default)" appears instead of a name. To retrieve this unnamed value, specify either null or the empty string ("") for valueName.
