Error connecting to remote registry

Open chuchi2k2 opened this issue 3 years ago • 11 comments

Version 0.9 Runs as admin mode. When I "Connect to Remote Registry" and trying to click on browse button, it throws an error: El programa no puede abrir el cuadro de dialogo requerido porque no se pueden encontrar las ubicaciones. Cierre este mensaje e intentelo de nuevo. El programa no puede abrir el cuadro de dialogo requerido If i trying by writing the name of a computer in the dialog box runs perfectly.

Thanks for your help.

Do you get the same error when running with standard user rights?

I have the same error. If you click Browse on an empty computer name field you will get this error.

Tested on another computer, totally different from the first post, and it works well. When i click on browse button it shows the window to search/select the computer. Maybe a library is missing in the first computer.

What OS version is on these machines?

I can connect to a remote machine but it only shows "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" and "HKEY_USERS" I can't browse the remote registry. Its a Windows 10 device.

These are the only "real" keys - all others are derivatives. For remote Registry, that's all you can get.

Yeah but I can't browse the subkeys.

That may be a security issue. I will investigate when I get the chance.

Please try the same with RegEdit and let me know if this works.

Regedit works without problems. I'm searching for an alternative with favourites even for remote registry. This would make tour admins life much easier.

I tried to build it my self, but I think someting is wrong with my visual studio c++ setup. I normaly program with C# and C++ only for Arduinos.

I found the issue ... When you type the hostname in lowercase than it doesn't work. In this case _remotes contains the remote host two times. One time with lowercase and no computername set in the object and one time in uppercase with the computername set.
