Add an entry to [Registry] section with ValueType parameter set to multisz. Use {olddata} and {break} tokens in the ValueData parameter:
On a
string,expandsz, ormultisztype value, you may use a special constant called{olddata}in this parameter.{olddata}is replaced with the previous data of the registry value. The{olddata}constant can be useful if you need to append a string to an existing value, for example,{olddata};{app}. If the value does not exist or the existing value isn't a string type, the{olddata}constant is silently removed.{olddata}will also be silently removed if the value being created is amultisztype but the existing value is not a multi-string type (i.e. it's REG_SZ or REG_EXPAND_SZ), and vice versa.
On a
multisztype value, you may use a special constant called{break}in this parameter to embed line breaks (nulls).
