Quick question: Does anyone know how to, in VB.NET, save and load a font to the Windows Registry using only one Value? I have tried googleing it but the only result were in other, non .NET languages. I'd appreciate it!

@First Answer: I always do that. I guess I need to specify every minutia of what I did trying to find an answer.

You can try using the
SaveSetting() of vb.net to save the settings to default vb registry entry
getsetting () to retrive the data

OR you can create and save your own subkey by

creating a registrykey
Dim r As RegistryKey
r = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\RegisteredApplications\", True)
r.SetValue("WordWrap", 1, RegistryValueKind.String)
similarly U can use
str = r.GetValue("MicrosoftCorporation")

U can try it for urself
I have used it for my application and it works great
But u must have administrative previlages.:cool:
