you can only import binary registry files

Or View | Document Properties | Preferences | Write Unicode and UTF-8 BOM. Select Configure | Preferences | Document Classes | | Write Unicode and UTF-8 BOM You naively omit the required identifiers when saving a UTF-16 file!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TextPad fails to apply (and on saving REMOVES existing) Unicode marker strings at the beginning of a UTF-16 file: I searched the web for the solution to this problem and the common factor was the culprit 'TextPad' You can only import binary registry files from within the Registry Editor.īut even importing from within the registry editor fails! The specified file is not a registry script. When you use TextPad to open a *.reg file in the Unicode Format, and save it (even without any editing) then the Registry Editor refuses to entertain it thereafter because it now sees it as a binary file.
