Change the value of a register?

[Elden]

Hello,

is there a way to change the register value of a running program?

example: (from a debugger)

7C912927 84E4 TEST AL,AL


AL=0 and i want to change it to 1 and freeze the value so it always stay to 1. It's possible to do it with a debugger but i would like to learn how to code that in c++

Any advices, links?

Thx

I don't understand what you mean. Registers can't be 'frozen' to a specific value, especially one that is used for return values (al).

The easiest way to preserve a register value is to constantly push and pop the register before and after any code that changes it. Alternatevely, you can store it into a variable and recover it later.

Correct. And changing registry values during runtime may cause damage because you may delete a value that is needed. So don't mess up with changing registry values. (Believe this: on an x86 there is no way to freeze and/or lock registrys and/or its value).
