Accessing the registry, without getting errors (see attachment):

Both variable and path should not begin with a slash (/).

ExistsRegistry (
[optional string] sub directory in the script's registry key,
[optional string] variable  in the script's registry key
)
Returns true if exists, false if not exists

DeleteRegistry (
[optional string] sub directory in the script's registry key,
[optional string] variable to remove, if not set, the whole directory will be removed
)
Deletes a variable or key.

ReadRegistry (
[optional string] sub directory in the script's registry key,
[optional string] variable to read from,
[optional string] default value in case the variable is not set yet
)
Reads the value of a key or variable, returns the value if found, returns default value if set, returns null if failed.

WriteRegistry (
[optional string] sub directory in the script's registry key,
[optional string] variable to read from,
[string] value to write,
[boolean] whether or not to overwrite if set already
)
Writes a value to a key or variable, returns the written value if overwrite is true or value did not exist, returns original value if overwrite is false and value did exist, returns null if failed.


Examples:

code:

---

ExistsRegistry("example", "MyAge");
// returns false

ReadRegistry("example", "MyAge");
// returns null

WriteRegistry("example", "MyAge", 16);
// writes 16, returns 16

ExistsRegistry("example", "MyAge");
// returns true

WriteRegistry("example", "MyAge", 17, false);
// does not write, returns 16

DeleteRegistry("example", "MyAge");
// deletes value

ReadRegistry("example", "MyAge", 17);
// writes 17, returns 17

WriteRegistry("example", "MyAge", 18);
// writes 18, returns 18

DeleteRegistry("example");
// deletes whole example key
