Take a look at http://blog.sapien.com/current/2008/1/23/is-powershell-installed.html for an example of using the WMI registry provider in PowerShell. I also have a followup at http://blog.sapien.com/current/2008/1/28/got-powershell-revisited.html that shows how to use the .NET framework classes to read the registry. If you need more PowerShell help with this topic, please post something in the forums at powershellcommunity.org.

Is there the possibility of you turning that RegQuery.bat into comparable PowerShell code. I was just working on reading some registry keys for a list of computers and was hoping it could be done easily in PowerShell.
