>To create an application path, so you can run an
application in Windows XP from the Run dialog box you
need to:
1. Run regedit and go to
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths
2. Create a new key with the what ever you want to use as
your run command:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App
Paths\nameofprogram.exe
3. In the key folder that you created, create a new
string, call it 'Path' and modify the value to point the
specific folder of your
executable your running:
C:\ProgramFiles\nameofprogram.
4. Use the default string and modify it's value to point
to the executable you want to run.
