A. To apply a .reg file (a registry information file) the normal method from the command prompt is to enter

C:> regedit .reg

This applies the change and gives a confirmation message:

"Information is .reg has been successfully entered into the registry"

If you would like to avoid this confirmation message and apply the change silently use the /s switch, e.g.

C:> regedit /s .reg
