Enter the data for the value. You can use environment variables.
Data Type
Select the type of data contained in the named value.
The associated Windows API data types are in parentheses below.
String
(REG_SZ) Identifies the value as an expandable string. To include a
property, enclose the property name in square brackets.
Unexpanded string
(REG_EXPAND_SZ) Identifies the value as a string that contains unexpanded
references to environment variables that are expanded when the value is

be embedded.

not use spaces, commas, or other characters to separate the bytes.
