DeleteValue(String, Boolean)

Source:
RegistryKey.cs

Deletes the specified value from this key, and specifies whether an exception is raised if the value is not found.

public:
 void DeleteValue(System::String ^ name, bool throwOnMissingValue);
public void DeleteValue (string name, bool throwOnMissingValue);
member this.DeleteValue : string * bool -> unit
Public Sub DeleteValue (name As String, throwOnMissingValue As Boolean)

Parameters

name
String

The name of the value to delete.

throwOnMissingValue
Boolean

Indicates whether an exception should be raised if the specified value cannot be found. If this argument is true and the specified value does not exist, an exception is raised. If this argument is false and the specified value does not exist, no action is taken.

Exceptions

ArgumentException

name is not a valid reference to a value and throwOnMissingValue is true.

-or-

name is null.

SecurityException

The user does not have the permissions required to delete the value.

ObjectDisposedException

The RegistryKey being manipulated is closed (closed keys cannot be accessed).

UnauthorizedAccessException

The RegistryKey being manipulated is read-only.

Remarks

If throwOnMissingValue is false, there is no way to tell if the deletion was successful, without subsequently trying to access the value just deleted. Therefore, use caution when deleting values from the registry in this manner.
