Deleting Registry Keys via Batch

For me to remember:

[codesyntax lang=”text” title=”Registry Key”]

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\key_to_be_deleted]

[/codesyntax]

If you want to delete a key from the registry you place a “-” before the name of the key in the registry file.

Example:

If your registry file is called “sample.reg” you can now issue the command “regedit sample.reg /s” and the key “key_to_be_deleted” including all subkeys are deleted from the registry.

How to install Quickr (Domino) ActiveX control unattended

If users do not have admin rights on their workstations the ActiveX control needed by Quickr (Domino) cannot be installed and the users are missing some of the functionality.

In these cases you can install the ActiveX control via a software distribution tool. To do this you need a setup procedure which runs unattended in the background.

As the description in this technote did not work for me I created my own installation routine.

Although it does work for me I am not absolutely sure if this procedure is 100% correct. So any feedback is welcome. I am also interested how others had solved this problem.

Re-enable folder cookies in Quickr 8.2 (Domino)

If you wonder why in Quickr 8.2 the folder settings are no longer stored between sessions:

For performance reasons the default behaviour for this has changed in Quickr 8.2 to not writing cookies.

If you want to reenable behaviour of Quickr 8.1 you need to add the following section to QPCONFIG.XML and restart the server:

[codesyntax lang=”xml” title=”qpconfig.xml”]

<cookies>
	<folder enabled="true" />
</cookies>

[/codesyntax]

Refresh commands necessary after installing Quickr (Domino) fixpack

To make sure that the Blog and Wiki templates get the updated design after installing a Quickr (Services for Domino) hofix or fixpack you need to perform the following two commands on the server console after applying the normal upgrade commands:

load qptool refresh -r -d Wiki
load qptool refresh -r -d Blog

This is currently not documented in the README but in this technote.
