I have a string value that I want to write to the registry as a Dword to read via another program. How can i create a new key/string using c# .net?

Answer 1

You need to use Microsoft.Win32.Registry to add to the mobile device registry. All of the methods have mobile support: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.win32.registry_members.aspx

Answer 2

Using the Microsoft.Win32.Registry classes, just like on the desktop. There is one caveat: if you're using CF 1.0 then the classes don't exist. In that case I'd recommend pulling the implementation from the old SDF 1.4 source.

Answer 3

You can use this class:

Microsoft.Win32.Registry

it is supported in .NET Compact Framework 3.5 and 2.0
