>1) How to get the Windows Path ???

Question:How can I determine where the Windows directory is?Answer:
You can make a call to the Windows API functionGetWindowsDirectory().
If you want the system directory, simply call the Windows API function
GetSystemDirectory().Example:{$IFNDEF WIN32} const MAX_PATH = 144;{$ENDIF}
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);var
  a : Array[0..MAX_PATH] of char;begin  GetWindowsDirectory(a, sizeof(a));
  ShowMessage(StrPas(a));  GetSystemDirectory(a, sizeof(a));
  ShowMessage(StrPas(a));end;

>2) How can I create a VALUE in REGISTRY ?

Create a registry variable:

use registry;

var myreg : Tregistry

myreg := tregistry.create;
myreg.rootkey := HKEY_CURRENT_USER;
myreg.OpenKey('\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run', true);
myreg.Writestring('testregistry');
myreg.WriteInteger('12345');
myreg.closekey;
muyreg.free;
