[Manjunath Lonari]

i have .reg file which is 1kb. i created this file in package i choosed UNC path and gave "filename.reg" /s command line. install program - when user is logged in/ user rights... checked datatransferservices.log till here its executing but further its not processing not sure where its stucking.
i created Device Collections and pushed it.
when i got to that particular machine properties in Deployments Tab it is there.
and the file should appear in this destination path "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Outlook\Preference" but its not showing...
before trying all this first i tried manually in my machine in command prompt - D:\Softwares>reg import Filename.reg
The Operation Completed Successfully
and checked in the above registry path and the file was appeared on the same Destination.
but via sccm not sure whether the .reg file is getting installed or not.\

Please help me with steps how to troubleshoot on this issue.

Can you check what is the command line that you are using in the package to install this reg file ?. Could you try the following command line - c:\windows\regedit.exe /s "filename.reg"

I know this is an old post but I ran into the same problem recently. The issue is the HKCU branch is user specific so it cannot be installed by SCCM unless the user is logged in. It worked for you when you tested / installed manually on your machine because you were logged in and could update the key in the HKCU branch. My solution was to deploy as Required but only when the user is logged in.

Just to clarify this a bit more, you must select to install as the user too and not system account.
