Title: RE: [chef] Windows registry key change for another user
Rather than work around a missing feature in Putty, you could try Kitty. It is a fork from the Putty project that addresses many of these missing features. PuTTY itself seems to still be developed, but at an extremely slow pace; the latest release is from 2011.
