Binary Registry Values come back empty

[AdmJLovejoy]

Binary Registry Values come back empty. I'm assuming it's a code issue within the service.

Sample:

const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002
strComputer = "."
Set StdOut = WScript.StdOut

Set oReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" &_
strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")

strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion"
strValueName = "LicenseInfo"
oReg.GetBinaryValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath,_
strValueName,strValue


For i = lBound(strValue) to uBound(strValue)
StdOut.WriteLine strValue(i)
Next

There are many useful reasons to pull Binary Reg Key Values.

Here is a TechNet article that may be helpful...

This is by design since the first version that could read registry keys?
(most) Binary keys are not meant to be converted into string.
