I am trying to enable downloading test drivers on my Windows 8.1. The tutorial says that I should add the following key to the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Test Drivers - use at own riskI think i should:
1) go into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\ in the regedit
2) right click on Windows then New->Key
3) name the key "Test Drivers"
4) click on new key Test drivers and set "Value data" into "use at own risk"
Am I correct? Would be also nice if you could tell me if it can be done from the command line (it's easier). Thank you in advance.

No, the correct thing to do is to right click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows and select New => Key and name it Test Drivers - use at own risk
To add it from the Command Line, you have to:
Paste this into a file and name it import.reg
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Test Drivers - use at own risk]
"1"="1"
"1"=-Then, simply save and run.
