Hi Guys
Ive been a long time browser of these forums and have managed to create many basic scripts using the information here but I have come across a problem with my latest one.
Im trying to loop through a reg key to remove any left over traces of Adobe Reader but for some reason it deletes some but leaves other entries. If I run the script again it will then delete some more.
I would like it to be able to run once and catch all the entries and remove them. Below is the code im using.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
; Checks the Registry and removes any left over Adobe reader entries Local Const $sSKey0 = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products" Local $a, $sSubKey0, $RegKey0,$ProductName, $Found $ProductName = "" $Found = "" While 1 $a += 1 $sSubKey0 = RegEnumKey($sSKey0, $a) If @Error Then ExitLoop $ProductName = RegRead($sSKey0 & "\" & $sSubKey0, "ProductName") If StringInStr($ProductName, "Adobe Reader 9") Or _ StringInStr($ProductName, "Adobe Reader X") Or _ StringInStr($ProductName, "Adobe Reader XI") Then $RegKey0 = $sSKey0 & "\" & $sSubKey0 RegDelete($RegKey0) EndIf Sleep(100) WEnd
Heres the registry entries im using for testing. It seems to leave the Adobe Reader 9.1 , Adobe Reader X and Adobe Reader XI on first run. Subsequent runs then remove these keys.
