1. Enhance registry path handling: - Check if the registry path exists at the start of the script using `Test-Path`. - If the path does not exist, it is created using `New-Item -Path $RegistryPath -Force`. 2. Improve user input validation for the "Action" and "Choice" prompts: - Removed the abrupt `exit` command which was used on an invalid choice. - Implemented while loops to validate user inputs, allowing users to correct their inputs without restarting the script. BREAKING CHANGE: The `exit` command was removed to prevent the script from terminating abruptly on invalid inputs, potentially breaking any reliance on the older abrupt exit behavior.
- Added individual `.exe` entry management, enabling users to create separate registry keys for different `.exe` files and enhancing configuration flexibility. - Introduced the functionality to list all existing entries, allowing users to view all their current configurations. - Expanded the removal functionality to allow users to select specific entries to remove or to remove all entries at once, providing finer control over registry management.
- Resolved the issue where users couldn't remove a registry entry by selecting its corresponding number. - Ensured that full details of each registry entry are fetched using `Get-Item -LiteralPath $SubKey.PSPath` before prompting the user for their choice of entry to remove. - Provided the option for the user to exit the script at any point by entering 'x'.
