Replacing registry default value from command line
How can I correctly replace this information
REG Add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.jpg" /f /v "(Default)" /t REG_SZ /d "PhotoViewer.FileAssoc.Tiff"
Use the /ve option (Set the (default) value) instead of /v:
REG Add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.jpg" /ve /d "PhotoViewer.FileAssoc.Tiff" /f
Syntax
REG ADD [ROOT\]RegKey /ve [/d Data] [/f]-- Set the (default) value
Source reg

Try using /ve instead of /v like this:
