I tried to create a custom fix to run an update to allow office to run older file types that Office SP3 stopped. The file I downloaded was a .reg file. When I sent the custom fix it gave the error message "Unable to send Process". Is Prism Patch Manager able to install .reg files or do they have to be .exe?

Thanks

You cannot use a .reg file directly in a custom fix. Try calling regedit.exe (silently) to install the .reg file. Here’s sample syntax:

regedit /s [path to REG file]

If that doesn’t work, you could try putting the regedit command within a .bat file and use that in the custom fix.

 

Of course, you could also push out a registry tweak with a Package Task through the Prism Deploy Console, or run the regedit command as a Command Task in the Prism Deploy Console.
