Hi, does anyone know how to delete a registry key/subkey using VB 2005 Express. Also, if any other methods using VB, C#, C++, J#, post them as well.

you can modify anything in the registry through the My.Computer.Registry namespace.
for example, if you want to delete an entry in the local machine driectory, you would enter CODE My.Computer.Registry.LocalMachine.DeleteSubKey(key here) and change 'key here' to the key you want to delete

Or you can try the more ancient method
CODE Dim regKey As RegistryKey regKey = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("Software", True) regKey.DeleteSubKey("MyApp", True) regKey.Close() Or you can refer to http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/registry_with_vb.asp |

If there's ever a software made to alert you of latest topics and latest post. You will be able to keep track.  But is there such software.. |
