winreg
--- Windows 註冊表存取¶
These functions expose the Windows registry API to Python. Instead of using aninteger as the registry handle, ahandle object is usedto ensure that the handles are closed correctly, even if the programmer neglectsto explicitly close them.
在 3.3 版的變更:Several functions in this module used to raise aWindowsError
, which is now an alias ofOSError
.
函式¶
This module offers the following functions:
- winreg.CloseKey(hkey)¶
Closes a previously opened registry key. Thehkey argument specifies apreviously opened key.
備註
Ifhkey is not closed using this method (or via
hkey.Close()
), it is closed when thehkey object is destroyed byPython.
- winreg.ConnectRegistry(computer_name,key)¶
Establishes a connection to a predefined registry handle on another computer,and returns ahandle object.
computer_name is the name of the remote computer, of the form
r"\\computername"
. IfNone
, the local computer is used.key is the predefined handle to connect to.
The return value is the handle of the opened key. If the function fails, an
OSError
exception is raised.引發一個附帶引數

- winreg.CreateKey(key,sub_key)¶
Creates or opens the specified key, returning ahandle object.
key is an already open key, or one of the predefinedHKEY_* constants.
sub_key is a string that names the key this method opens or creates.
Ifkey is one of the predefined keys,sub_key may be

- winreg.FlushKey(key)¶
Writes all the attributes of a key to the registry.
key is an already open key, or one of the predefinedHKEY_* constants.
It is not necessary to call
FlushKey()
to change a key. Registry changes areflushed to disk by the registry using its lazy flusher. Registry changes arealso flushed to disk at system shutdown. UnlikeCloseKey()
, theFlushKey()
method returns only when all the data has been written to theregistry. An application should only callFlushKey()
if it requiresabsolute certainty that registry changes are on disk.備註
If you don't know whether a
FlushKey()
call is required, it probablyisn't.
- winreg.LoadKey(key,sub_key,file_name)¶

function. Under the file allocationtable (FAT) file system, the filename may not have an extension.A call to
LoadKey()
fails if the calling process does not have theSE_RESTORE_PRIVILEGE

sub_key is a string that holds the name of the subkey with which the value isassociated. If this parameter is
None
or empty, the function retrieves thevalue set by theSetValue()
method for the key identified bykey.Values in the registry have name, type, and data components. This methodretrieves the data for a key's first value that has a

Saves the specified key, and all its subkeys to the specified file.
key is an already open key, or one of the predefinedHKEY_* constants.
file_name is the name of the file to save registry data to. This filecannot already exist. If this filename includes an extension, it cannot beused on file allocation table (FAT) file systems by the
LoadKey()
method.Ifkey represents a key on a remote computer, the path described byfile_name is relative to the remote computer. The caller of this method mustpossess theSeBackupPrivilege security privilege.

- winreg.SetValue(key,sub_key,type,value)¶
Associates a value with a specified key.
key is an already open key, or one of the predefinedHKEY_* constants.
sub_key is a string that names the subkey with which the value is associated.
type is an integer that specifies the type of the data. Currently this must be
REG_SZ
, meaning only strings are supported. Use theSetValueEx()
function for support for other data types.value is a string that specifies the new value.
If the key specified by thesub_key parameter does not exist, the SetValuefunction creates it.
Value lengths are limited by available memory. Long values (more than 2048bytes) should be stored as files with the filenames stored in the configurationregistry. This helps the registry perform efficiently.

reserved can be anything -- zero is always passed to the API.
type is an integer that specifies the type of the data. SeeValue Types for the available types.
value is a string that specifies the new value.
This method can also set additional value and type information for the specifiedkey. The key identified by the key parameter must have been opened with
KEY_SET_VALUE
access.To open the key, use the
CreateKey()
orOpenKey()
methods.Value lengths are limited by available memory. Long values (more than 2048bytes) should be stored as files with the filenames stored in the configurationregistry. This helps the registry perform efficiently.

Registry Handle Objects¶
This object wraps a Windows HKEY object, automatically closing it when theobject is destroyed. To guarantee cleanup, you can call either theClose()
method on the object, or theCloseKey()
function.
All registry functions in this module return one of these objects.
All registry functions in this module which accept a handle object also acceptan integer, however, use of the handle object is encouraged.
Handle objects provide semantics for__bool__()
-- thus
ifhandle:print("Yes")
will printYes
if the handle is currently valid (has not been closed ordetached).
The object also support comparison semantics, so handle objects will comparetrue if they both reference the same underlying Windows handle value.
Handle objects can be converted to an integer (e.g., using the built-inint()
function), in which case the underlying Windows handle value isreturned. You can also use theDetach()
method to return theinteger handle, and also disconnect the Windows handle from the handle object.
- PyHKEY.Close()¶
Closes the underlying Windows handle.
If the handle is already closed, no error is raised.
- PyHKEY.Detach()¶
Detaches the Windows handle from the handle object.
The result is an integer that holds the value of the handle before it isdetached. If the handle is already detached or closed, this will returnzero.
After calling this function, the handle is effectively invalidated, but thehandle is not closed. You would call this function when you need theunderlying Win32 handle to exist beyond the lifetime of the handle object.

- PyHKEY.__enter__()¶
- PyHKEY.__exit__(*exc_info)¶
The HKEY object implements
__enter__()
and__exit__()
and thus supports the context protocol for thewith
statement:withOpenKey(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,"foo")askey:...# work with key
will automatically closekey when control leaves the
with
block.
