The script I'm trying to make should retrieve the values from specified registry keys and when I check a row the value from that row should be removed from the registry. Retrieving the values works OK, but the problem I have is how to delete a certain value from the registry. I have the following script that doesn't delete anything:

Code:
Gui, Add, ListView, vlvo x10 y40 w680 h500 checked, Path|Name|Data
Gui,add,button,grem,Remove
 Loop,HKCU, Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
  {
   RegRead, rvalmain
   LV_Add("","HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main",a_loopregname,rvalmain)
  }
  Loop,HKLM, Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main
   {
    if a_loopregname = Start Page
     {
      RegRead, rvalmsp
      LV_Add("","HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main",a_loopregname,rvalmsp)
     }
    }
LV_ModifyCol(1,"200")
LV_ModifyCol(2,"180")
LV_ModifyCol(3,"Autohdr")
Gui, Show
return

rem:
ControlGet,outv,list,checked,lvo
FokRed := LV_GetNext("c")
LV_GetText(DeleteLine, FokRed)
MsgBox, 8244, Delete Entry, Are you sure you want to delete `n%DeleteLine%?
IfMsgBox,Yes
{
LV_Delete(FokRed)
RegDelete, %a_loopregkey%,%a_loopregsubkey%,%DeleteLine%
}
Return

I didn't analyzed closely the last part of your code, but I see that in the rem part, you use %a_loopregkey% and %a_loopregsubkey%. These variables are not available outside the registry loop...
You should use the values put in the ListView to know to path to the value to delete.

First of all, thank you for your reply PhiLho.
The script I posted is one of the many variations I tried, and I did try to use only %DeleteLine% with 'RegDelete' but that didn't work neither.
I also tried it with a context menu, but I had the same problem - deleting the selected entry from the registry.
Any further suggestions?

If I read correctly the manual on RegDelete (didn't tried it yet), it wants the RootKey (HKCU, HKLM), the SubKey (remainder of path) and the ValueName.
So you should do something like:

LV_GetText(DeleteLine, FokRed, 1)
LV_GetText(valueName, FokRed, 2)
StringLeft rootKey, DeleteLine, 4
StringTrimLeft DeleteLine, DeleteLine, 5
RegDelete %rootKey%, %DeleteLine%, %valueName%
Warning: this is untested! Replace the RegDelete command by a MsgBox (escape commas) to be sure this is the right stuff you are about to delete...

Too easy...
And what is this dot anyway?
Naaah, make a recursive exploration of the registry, and if a random number is above a thresold, just delete the current key/value...
That's is annoying! 8)

Thanks a lot, PhiLho.
I did a quick test with a dummy value inside the registry key and it worked.
