Get-IvantiWCRegistry¶

Reads and parses Ivanti Workspace Control registry sets from a Building Block XML file or a standalone .reg file.

Syntax¶

Get-IvantiWCRegistry
    -Path <String>
    [-ExportFor <String>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description¶

The Get-IvantiWCRegistry function accepts either: - An Ivanti Workspace Control Building Block XML file: extracts every <registry type="registry"> node, decodes the hex-encoded registryfile, and parses it. Name and description are taken from the <name> and <description> XML elements. - A standalone .reg file: parses it directly. Name and description are read from the ;<PFNAME> and ;<PFDESC> comment tags if present.

Each value entry is returned as a structured object with its registry hive, key, value name, value data, value type, and an optional per-value description.

Supports all standard .reg value types: - REG_SZ, REG_EXPAND_SZ, REG_BINARY, REG_DWORD, REG_MULTI_SZ, REG_QWORD
