We have an application that apparently saves its preferences/settings to the HKU hive for the specific domain user that's logged on - instead of saving the settings to the HKCU\Software hive. i can see the settings in HKCU, but the application never seems to actually read or set those values in that hive while the application is running. Changing the settings from within the application only affects the HKU hive.
Assuming I can't change the application's behavior, is there any way to preserve/restore the settings when they are stored in the HKU hive for a specific SID? Since the SID varies based on who is logged on, I can't specify the SID for any export, import or modification of settings (whereas I could do it easily if it was in HKCU).
Any thoughts? Thank you.
