Finally, Microsoft actually made it fairly straight forward to access the Registry. This simple application show 6 major Registry Calls, CreateKey,DeleteKey,DeleteKeyTree,SetValue,ReadValue,DeleteValue
And the best part is they're all done in about 4 to 8 lines of code. This is built into .NET so finally no API calls and Constants to remember.

Thanks cubed!
Just about all of the other regkey examples out there are junk. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Nice FSO style registry but there is no advantage of it over using SaveSetting and GetSetting no need to import if your after saving one or two values use these not this method, it's a common PSC aproach don't use the tools supplied make your own, well some should not be remade unless there is a specific need.
