Hi
You will have to convert name of the user
to the SID, take the string representation
of SID. It looks like:
S-1-5-21-758051104-1024175472-426909794-1073
and edit registry hive
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-758051104-1024175472-426909794-1073
The API to use:
- convert name to SID: LookupAccountName
- get string form of SID: ConvertSidToStringSidW
- edit registry: any of classes/components that can edit the registry. See TRegistry, TWmiRegistry.
Hope this helps,
Serguei
