How can i add a value to this?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

        Dim regKey As RegistryKey
        regKey = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion", True)
        regKey.CreateSubKey("Run")
        regKey.SetValue("RSL", "IT WORKS!!!")
        regKey.Close()

i wanna add this: regKey.SetValue("RSL", Application.StartupPath & "RSL.exe")

Are you getting an error?

You do realize you will need to make the string first for this, then add it. Right?

Application.StartupPath & "RSL.exe

I'm not good at VB, but I can show you an example in C#.

RegistryKey rKey, rKey1;
rKey = Registry.CurrentUser;
rKey.OpenSubKey(@"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE", true);

rKey1 = rKey.CreateSubKey("Software\\" +
                            Application.CompanyName + "\\" +
                            Application.ProductName +
                            "\\MySettings\\");
rKey1.SetValue("PreferedColor", "Green");

As you can see, a second RegistryKey is used to become the referenced object from making the new subkey. Then you add the new value to that.

I'll take a stab at what you need for VB, but you will probably have to fix some errors

Dim regKey As RegistryKey
Dim regKey1 As RegistryKey
Dim FinalPath As String
FinalPath = Application.StartupPath & "RSL.exe"
regKey = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion", True)
regkey1 =  regKey.CreateSubKey("Run")
regKey1.SetValue("RSL", FinalPath)
regKey.Close()
regKey1.Close()

 Dim regKey As RegistryKey
        regKey = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run", True)
        regKey.SetValue("RSL", Application.StartupPath & "RSL.exe")
        regKey.Close()

Because the subkey "RUN" is most likely already present, you dont need to create it and so you can go straight to it.

But if the key already exists and you have a regKey.CreateSubKey("Run") it wont add the "Setvalue"

So, you will need a little bit more code to first check if the subkey exists and if so, bypass the createkey otherwise create it first.
