To all humans on this site
can you please show me how can I delete a registry sub key(with sub keys values in it)....Thanks.
Here is my code
use strict;
use Win32::Service;
use Win32::Registry;
use vars qw/%data @source @target/;
if ($HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->Connect($ARGV[0], my $root))
{
print "\nSuccessfully connect to remote registry on $ARGV[0]\n";
if ($root->Open("SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Print\\printer
+s", my $Key))
{
print "Obtaining printer information....Please wait\n";
my @keys;
my $counter = 0;
$Key->GetKeys( \@keys );
print "\nPrinters found on machine : $ARGV[0]\n";
for my $subkey ( @keys )
{
print "$subkey\n";
&deleteReg($Key,"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSe
+t\\Control\\Print\\printers\\".$subkey);
}
$Key->Close;
}
$root->Close;
}
else
{
print "\nError: $^E \n";
}
sub deleteReg {
my( $key, $name )= @_;
for( eval { keys %{$key->{$name}} } ) {
deleteReg( $key, "$name\\$_" );
}
delete $key->{$name};
}
