I'm currently working on a project where i need to find all occurrences of the word "Skyprint" in the registry and then delete them.

I'm doing this to remove all traces of a failed printer-installation.

I've tried looking up some ways of doing it, but it appears i can't find a way to do it :(

Also, i'm new to programming - be nice :)

  • I've looked at this already. I'm afraid i can't figure out what to do with this code :( It would be really great if someone could point out the obvious, like show where to type in the word i want to search for .. like " TYPE YOUR SEARCH HERE " or somthing like that – Dronkie Dec 19 '17 at 13:20
