read/write to Windows Registry using Java

I’m trying to run this cmd code in java.

REG ADD "HKCU\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\INTERNET EXPLORER\MAIN" /V "START PAGE" /D "http://www.google.com/" /F

This works perfectly with bat file. I have tried to make it work on java

import java.util.*;

private static void addToWin( File f, String param ) throws IOException {
String name = generateName(f);
String cmd = "REG ADD HKCU\\Software\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Main /V Start Page /D http://www.google.com/ /F";
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
}

But not worked. How can I make this work ?

Here you are:

ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder(new String[]{"REG", "ADD", "HKCU\\Software\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer\\Main", "/v", "Start Page", "/d", "\"http://www.google.com/\"", "/f"});
pb.start();
