Windows 95: The RegDeleteKey function deletes a subkey and all its descendants.
Windows NT: The RegDeleteKey function deletes the specified subkey. The subkey to be deleted must not have subkeys.
LONG RegDeleteKey(
HKEY hKey, |
// handle of open key |
LPCTSTR lpSubKey |
// address of name of subkey to delete |
); |
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
HKEY_USERS
Windows NT only: HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA
Windows 95 only: HKEY_DYN_DATA
The key specified by the lpSubKey parameter must be a subkey of the key
identified by hKey.
Windows NT: The specified key must not have subkeys.
If the function succeeds, the return value is ERROR_SUCCESS.
If the function fails, the return value is a nonzero error code defined in WINERROR.H. You can use the FormatMessage function with the FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM flag to get a generic description of the error.
If the function succeeds, RegDeleteKey removes the specified key from the registry. The entire key, including all of its values, is removed.
To open the key, use the RegCreateKeyEx or RegOpenKeyEx function. Do not use the RegCreateKey or RegOpenKey functions.
