Reg Command - AnalogX Proxy Settings

For AnalogX's Proxy program, you can use the reg query command to check the value of the Disable Bind Warning registry entry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\AnalogX\Proxy.


C:\>reg query HKCU\SOFTWARE\AnalogX\Proxy /v "Disable Bind Warning"

! REG.EXE VERSION 3.0

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\AnalogX\Proxy
    Disable Bind Warning        REG_DWORD       0x1

If the registry value is set to 1, i.e. 0x1, you will no longer get the "WARNING - Proxy is currently running in an open state!" message when the Proxy program starts.

If the value is not set, you can use the reg add command to set it.

To see other values, such as the port used for the HTTP proxy port, you can also use the reg command. The following example shows how to determine what port is being used for the HTTP proxy, if the value has been changed from its default value.


C:\>reg query HKCU\SOFTWARE\AnalogX\Proxy /v "HTTP Port"

! REG.EXE VERSION 3.0

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\AnalogX\Proxy
    HTTP Port   REG_DWORD       0xeab8

The value displayed is a hexadecimal value. In this case, the value is 0xeab8. The 0x indicates that the number that follows is a hexadecimal number. If you don't know how to convert hexadecimal numbers to decimal, you can use the Windows calculator to perform the conversion. Click on Start, All Programs, Accessories , and then select Calculator. Click on View and then select Scientific. Then select Hex for the base. You can then click on the hexadecimal digits, in this case EAB8. Then change the base from Hex to Dec for "decimal". The number is then converted to its equivalent decimal value, in this case 60,088.

You can check the other proxy port numbers by substituing FTP Port, NNTP Port, POP3 Port, SMTP Port, or Socks Port for HTTP Port in the example reg query command above.

If you wish, you can export all of the AnalogX subkeys and their values to a file that you can view with Notepad or can use for importing on another computer. You can use the reg export command as in the example below, which will create a file AnalogX.reg. You could then take that file to another computer. If you double-clicked on it on the other system, the AnalogX Proxy registry keys would be entered into the registry on that systems or you could use the reg import command to import them into that system's registry.


C:\>REG EXPORT HKCU\Software\AnalogX AnalogX.reg

The operation completed successfully
