Hello,
I have a few registry entries i want to remove however i keep recieving the
error "Error accessing the registry" whenever i try to merge the .reg file.
The file i am trying to merge contains the below which as far as i can tell
is correct:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
Blank line
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER]
"Microsoft Map PC"=-"REG_SZ:mappc.exe"
"C:\\WINDOWS\\seeve.exe"=-"REG_SZ:seeve"
"C:\\WINDOWS\\Nail.exe"=-"REG_SZ:Nail Application"
Blank line
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE]
"Microsoft Map PC"="REG_SZ:mappc.exe"
"command"=-"REG_SZ:seeve"
"Shell"=-"REG_SZ:Explorer.exe C:\\WINDOWS\\Nail.exe"
Blank line
[HKEY_USERS]
"Microsoft Map PC"=-"REG_SZ:mappc.exe"
"C:\\WINDOWS\\seeve.exe"=-"REG_SZ:seeve"
"C:\\WINDOWS\\Nail.exe"=-"REG_SZ:Nail Application"

Your REG file is far from correct. You're trying to import directly into the root of the hives in question. You can't do this. And the format is completely wrong. An example of a REG file follows:

Hello,
Thank you for the quick answer i realised that the directory paths were
incomplete about 10 minutes after posting. I cant see where i have errored in
the registry text though, please could you correct the below if we assume its
in the below directory.
To create the reg file (correct me if i am wrong) i need to get the
location, then put underneath it in the below format the name of the entry
as above then the name, type and data?
Name Type Data
Microsoft Map PC=-REG_SZ:mappc.exe
I am unsure about how teh enty should look now i am trying to remove the
entries if you didnt figure that out.
If you need to add the full path, use my example as a template.

Hi Daniel,
Yes, that will work to delete all of the keys indicated, as long as the user account used to import the REG file has the appropriate permissions.
