Is there a way to convert the LocalProfileLoadTimeHigh & LocalProfileLoadTimeLow Registry values?
The LocalProfileLoadTimeHigh
and LocalProfileLoadTimeLow
registry values are part of the Windows user profile and store the load time of a user's local profile. These values are stored as two 32-bit integers (high and low parts) in the Windows Registry.
To convert the LocalProfileLoadTimeHigh
and LocalProfileLoadTimeLow
values into a single 64-bit integer representing the complete load time, you can use the following Python code:
pythonimport winreg
def get_profile_load_time():
try:
# Open the registry key containing the user profile load time values
key = winreg.OpenKey(winreg.HKEY_CURRENT_USER, 'Volatile Environment')
# Read the high and low parts of the profile load time values
high_part, _ = winreg.QueryValueEx(key, 'LocalProfileLoadTimeHigh')
low_part, _ = winreg.QueryValueEx(key, 'LocalProfileLoadTimeLow')
# Convert the high and low parts to a single 64-bit integer
load_time = (high_part << 32) | low_part
return load_time
except Exception as e:
print(f"Error retrieving profile load time: {e}")
# Example usage
profile_load_time = get_profile_load_time()
print(f"Profile Load Time: {profile_load_time}")
In this example, the winreg
module is used to access the Windows Registry. The get_profile_load_time()
function opens the registry key containing the user profile load time values and reads the LocalProfileLoadTimeHigh
and LocalProfileLoadTimeLow
values. It then combines these two values using bitwise shift and bitwise OR operations to form a single 64-bit integer representing the complete load time.
The profile_load_time
variable contains the converted profile load time value, which you can use as needed in your application.
Please note that this code assumes you have the necessary permissions to access the Windows Registry and read the specified registry values.
