[sarfaraznawaz]

Hello Every one, I am adding some key in Registry is not getting into effect until system reboot or by killing explorer. so how can i achieve it, without rebooting and killing explorer. please help me out .. Regards sarfaraz

You shouldn't need to reboot unless registry key was in HKLM rather than user's own HKU hive. Just log out and back in again. What was the reg key?

What process is it that needs to read the newly added key?

Ok, but that does not answer my question.
