The Registry view provides multi-line string support when you want to add a value to a particular registry key.

To add a multi-line string value:

1.

Right-click the registry key to which you want to add the multi-line value, point to New, and click Multi-String Value. The Multi-Line String Value dialog box opens.

2.

Select how you want to modify the registry value, and then enter a line for each null-delimited string.

3.

Click OK.

Note:Strings can contain just spaces, but they cannot be empty or [~], which is the delimiter for the strings.
