quick registry changes
How to make simple changes quickly
The best way to do this globally is with a Custom Vulnerability; this capability is present for LANDesk Management Suite stand-alone, without Security Suite or Patch Manager. If you just want to do it to a few machines, you can use scripts. An example of that process can be found in Maintenance Window Reboots.
- Go to Security and Patch Manager > Create Custom Definition.
- Fill in ID and Title
- Click Add to create a new rule, fill in the description and title. It's best practice to create separate rules for each platform that you want to work with.
- Select Platforms and optionally Products to filter the affected systems down.
- Select the registry condition that you DO NOT WANT. The logic here is to define who you want to make changes to, not who you've already made changes to.
- Under Patch Information, select This issue can be repaired without downloading a patch.
- Under Patch Install Commands, make the change you want.
- Save your changes, and right-click the Vulnerability; you have the option to create a repair job, or set autofix.
