<![CDATA[Retrieving REG_SZ value from Windows Registry]]>Given a registry value "SMTP Server" stored at:

"HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Account Manager\Accounts\00000001"

is this correct use of QSettings to retrieve it?

QSettings sysSettings(QSettings::UserScope, "Microsoft");
sysSettings.beginGroup("Internet Account Manager/Accounts/00000001");
m_strSMTP = sysSettings.value("SMTP Server", "").toString();
sysSettings.endGroup();

Thanks
D.

QSettings settings("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft",
                   QSettings::NativeFormat);
sysSettings.beginGroup("Internet Account Manager/Accounts/00000001");
m_strSMTP = sysSettings.value("SMTP Server", "").toString();
sysSettings.endGroup();
