Hello, All!
Is it possible to delete four registry keys with the help of a batch
command. `Data Miner' (2 keys & 2 values) appears in the registry. I have
Ad-aware & SpyBot. I am aware of the program which adds these keys. Wish to
add the batch file in the system startup. Any help would be appreciated.

With best regards, Brother Brock. E-mail: Nobodyknows@unknown.com

Hi,

In a command prompt, please run the following command:

To delete a specific regstry value, (in this case from HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\MuiCache) simply type:

REG DELETE HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\MuiCache /v NAME

Where NAME is the name of the value.

NOTE: Be careful not to confuse the NAME of the value, with the data in it.
