recursive removing of a registry key ... temp settings of a main app ... 1stpost

[void]

hello to everyone ... i started some project of mine ... and as i havent got some other compilers ... i began with masm32  :bdg ... it is cool ... because of PE size and speed but its a pain in u know where for ex. delphi coder ... for today my work is done ... 2:32AM  :eek .... am getting headache from asm code  :8) /// so i stucked at recursive removing of a registry key ... temp settings of a main app ...

there are lots of questions on this subject ... for ex: GuardedDeleteKey ???  :red cant make it work ... i read this forum ... looked at archived one ;) but cant access it ...

so what i need is Enumeratio and Removing of subkeys ... [yeah yeah i know ... no subkeys in a key which is gona be removed !] and then

invoke  ExitProcess,0

:(

* void went for some aspirine

I seem to remember a nifty registry key removal routine written by japheth. I can't link a forum message but if you go to his website you can find the routine in his asm com example.

www.japheth.de and the program was simpleserver or something like that.

i found it here "SHDeleteKey"

As far as I know (i'll go test it now) SHDeleteKey will remove a key and all of it's values.

If you want to remove a key containing subkeys, you'll need a recursive routine as demonstrated at the above link.

Either way, if that API call does the trick, mission accomplished.
