Is there a way to see every user profile in Hkey_User? I want to change a key
on every user but I only see the current user that is log on the pc.

I prefer not to use a third party application, Can I add a key in every user
profile under that key?

How about REG.EXE (MS)?

You could (probaly impractical) load each account's ntuser.dat hive
file manually into regedt32 and edit or merge...watch for those
temporory names in registry paths.
