Is there a way to access the registration code either through the registry or through a log file that is stored locally on the system?
I am attempting to create a KACE install script for Appspace that eliminates the need for me to be able to see the screen for the registration code. Is there a registry entry that is created that stores this information or is it stored anywhere on the device so that I can look for it with a script?

What you can see in logs is registration-related traffic (like device GUID requests via IIS logs), but not a reusable registration code you can pull and automate against.
For what you’re trying to do (KACE + zero screen interaction), the better path is to skip codes entirely and use advanced registration:
- Serial number / MAC-based registration – pre-register devices in the console so they don’t need to display or enter a code.
- Network policy (DNS-based) – auto-register devices on a network in bulk.
- Pre-registration / startup URL – device boots and registers automatically with a configured URL.
We get the challenge here - needing hands-off deployment at scale. These methods are designed specifically to remove that dependency on visible registration codes.
