Commented Unassigned: WSUS Error With MULTI_SZ [165]

I do not know if this issue is a WPP thing, but I'm starting here. I'm trying to publish an update that uses a 'RegValueExists' rule. That isn't impressive. What is significant is if the value is of type 'REG_MULTI_SZ', workstations fail with an error message when searching for new updates. If the value type is REG_SZ, all is well.

<bar:RegValueExists Key="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" Subkey="Software\HelpBox\userInstalled" Value="Google Chrome" Type="REG_MULTI_SZ"/>

Has anyone seen this?


Comments: The best way to avoid typo in this rule, is to copy the full key name from Regedit (for example : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FileZilla 3\fzshellext) by right-clicking in the key and choosing "Copy the key name". Then, paste it into the form. WPP will automatically remove the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\" for you.
