After running HHD Software's USB Monitor for the first time, it creates the
following registry key:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\??
Of course, the ?? could be anything. No matter what I do, I can't erase
this subkey. Regedit won't do it, Regedt32 won't do it, I've tried
programmatically with a short program in Visual Studio and it won't do it,
reg.exe won't do it. I've also tried deleting the entire parent key (Shared
Tools) which works for all the subkeys except this one.
In Sysinternals' Registry Monitor, I can see the program accessing this set
of keys at startup. I don't know what it's doing, but I just want to stop.
How can I get rid of it?
