Can someone look at this script for me and tell me what I'm missing?

@echo off

reg query HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Profiles\o365 >nul if %errorlevel% equ 0 (

echo "mykey exists- do nothing" ) else (

echo "mykey does not exist - add the key and give it a value" reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Profiles\o365 reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook" /v DefaultProfile /t REG_SZ /d "o365" /F

)

I don't think you can start the "if" on the same line as the other code.

@echo off

reg query HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Profiles\o365 >nul

if %errorlevel% equ 0 (

    echo "mykey exists- do nothing"

) else (

    echo "mykey does not exist - add the key and give it a value"
    reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook\Profiles\o365
    reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Outlook" /v DefaultProfile /t REG_SZ /d "o365" /F

)
