Deleting Registry Keys From The Command Line

Registry Tricks

Deleting Registry Keys from the Command Line:

 
 There are two ways to delete a key from the Registry from the Command 
 line. At the Windows Command line: 
 
 RegEdit /l location of System.dat /R location of User.dat /D Registry 
 key to delete
 You cannot be in Windows at the time you use this switch. 
 
 Or you can create a reg file as such:
 REGEDIT4
 
 [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\the key you want to delete] 
 Note the negative sign just behind the "["
 Then at the Command line type:
 1. RegEdit C:\Windows\(name of the regfile).
