Delete value in registry using VB script

[Lillian]

I have an users she install old version of "GIS" software
on XP machine, now she need to install new
version, but keep give her error, in order to remove
everything she need to clean out from the registry, the
new software is on c:\arcexe83, the old software is on
c:\arcexe82, this software is entire Los Angeles's
Map,for all the streets, we talking about thousand and
thousand in the registry, I spent 4 hours just
delete "arcexe82" from the registry,Hkey_Class_root,
Hkey_Current_users, Now I am in the middle of
Hkey_local_machine, I still have Hkey_users
and Hkey_current_config, my fingers are so tired, what I
did is find "arcexe82", hit F3, found it, deleted it. so
two fingers on the keyboard for 4 hours, can you
imageing? no fun.
So can you help me create some VB script to delet this
value "arcexe82" at once, I will be really appreciated it.

VB Script is probably not the way you want to go. You may want to try a program like Registry Crawler, 30 day shareware.
