NwEngine.Shell.DeleteRegKey doesn't work

[Former Member]

Hi all,

we are currently planning our SAPGui 7.30 deployment.

I try following in "OnEndUpdate":

If NwEngine.Shell.RegKeyExist("HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\SAPLOGON_INI_FILE") Then

    NwEngine.Shell.DeleteRegKey ("HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\SAPLOGON_INI_FILE")

End If

Unfortunately the reg key SAPLOGON_INI_FILE will not be deleted. All the other things (copy files, setting reg keys) work.

Can you please help me what is may the problem?

Best regards

Tony

Ok I finally got it. Thanks to Mary and following (ooooold) documentation I could figure out how it works: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b05e4fdd-644e-2a10-f988-9c0f5018a...

The correct line is:

If NwEngine.Shell.RegValueExist("HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\SAPLOGON_INI_FILE") Then

    NwEngine.Shell.DeleteRegValue ("HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\SAPLOGON_INI_FILE")

End If

I checked for a reg key and NOT for a value. With RegValueExist I get a correct If result and the DeleteRegValue will be executed.

Try DeleteRegValue, it worked for me.

Hello Mary,

thanks fort your reply. I tried RemoveRegKey, UnsetRegKey and now also DeleteRegValue but without any effect.

Can you may please post the snippet with your DeleteRegValue code?

What I am also missing is a FULL documentation of all NwSapSetup VB Script actions. I bet there are tons of possibilities undocumented.

Best regards

Try with

'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\SAPLOGON_INI_FILE'

When I use HKLM the script fail

Hello, I am working on a script to clean up the 720 registry entries in prepartion for 730.  I don't have an answer but I think it has something to do with HKLM.  I can delete HKCU keys but for some reason the HKLM keys do not delete due to a "not existing" error .
