Can't REG ADD DWORD value of /d 15

Question

I'm trying to add a DWORD value to the registry. However, when I open the entry the value data is f and not the numeric value of 15.

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\Global\GridLicensing" /v LicenseInterval /t REG_DWORD /d 15

If I manually set the regkey and then export it, the hex value is: 00000015

If I enter this into my REG ADD command the key still displays a value of 000000f or f if I open it up.

Any ideas why this doesn't seem to work when adding the value using reg add?

Answer 1

The value 15 is taken as decimal, which in hexadecimal is F.

For entering a hex value, the /d flag requires that you preface the 8-character hex value with 0x.

Write it like this: /d 0x00000015
