# CFREGISTRY

The CFREGISTRY tag reads, writes, and deletes keys and values in the system registry. CFREGISTRY is supported on all platforms, including Solaris and HP-UX.

Note | The ColdFusion Server Basic security settings may prevent CFRegistry from executing. These settings are managed using the ColdFusion Administrator Basic Security page. In order for CFRegistry to execute, it needs to be enabled on the Basic Security page. Please refer to Administering ColdFusion Serverfor more information about securing ColdFusion tags.
