    hi friends

    need a batch file to use as startup script so that any user login to pc (is a workgroup pc ) , the desktop  background color be pink.

    the following script doesn't work  :

    reg add "hkcu\control panel\controls" /v background /t reg_sz /d 21681113 /f

    what is the problem ? help me plz.

    ( i think format of this code 21681113  shouldn't be so )

    thanks in advance

    A startup script cannot set a user key.  I think you want to use Group Policy or perhaps a logon script.


    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Try this:

    reg query "hkcu\control panel\colors" /v background
