  1. Removing registry entries based on key name values


    I am trying to remove unwanted flight simulator files from my registry. These amount to literally thousands of files containing scenery, texture, model and other information, but doing so manually, file by file takes days.All the files have different keys, but their group name values appear similar. For instance all scenery files have the Key Name value 4196601E173CEB340998EDC3152CFB1 Rather than delete the files one by one, is there a way to use a delete command based on Name value, with a wild card for each Key entry. If using the above Key Name value, this woulkd delete all scenery file

    :)

  2. ForcedReboot Registry Key Value

    Hi Daniel,

    ForcedReboot is one of the subkeys in the registry. Subkeys contain data entries called values. The presence of a value on a key is a form of data that an application requires for it to run. An application opens a key and uses the values associated with
    the key to perform specific functions. A key can have any number of values, and the values can be in any form.

    You can visit these links for further information about registry values:


    Note: We do not recommend navigating and editing the values of the keys and subkeys in the registry. Changing the values of the keys and subkeys in the registry might cause serious system issues.

    We would like to ask if you are experiencing any issues on your Windows device. Since you are interested on finding what the value of a subkey stands for, we think that you are trying to troubleshoot your computer. If in case you are having any errors or
    issues with your Microsoft products, let us know so that we could assist you further.

    We are looking forward to your response.

    Can NOT remove ATITool registry key!

    It's low priority to stop ATITool from making undeletable class keys in the reigstry?

    That's about one rung above spyware.

    What bothers me most is that I'm pretty sure you can't protect a registry key by any simple means, something must still be running somewhat that is protecting that key. Even after I manually removed the service. That's what bothers me.

    Removing registry entries based on key name values

    Miscellaneous Registry entries?

    W1zzard: Miscellaneous Registry entries?

    For W1zzard,

    *Respect :respect:

    What are the registry entry names and data types for the Miscellaneous entries:

    Currently selected Catalyst A.I. level, and Geometry Instancing Enabled?

    I can't find anything that looks like those that are defined in that registry key, and I have to manually set them everytime I reboot my PC. *Frown Removing registry entries based on key name  values :(

    It would be nice to be able to keep them set across reboots. *Smile Removing registry entries based on key name  values :)

    Or are they taken care in version 0.25b11? I'm currently using 0.24.
