Hi DaveInRI

Try changing the permissions on the key and make sure you are running from the Administrator account.

Locate the key and any subkeys that you want to remove then right click each and choose 'Permissions' .

If the field under 'Group or user names' is empty or doesnt contain Administrators click Add, In the box titled 'Enter the object names to select' type Administrators, click OK.

With Administrators highlighted in the top part of the window check the Allow box next to 'Full Control', click Apply and OK. Finally Right click the keys and choose Delete.

Another way to do this is using Respendance Registrar Lite

Install then run Reglight , Navigate to the key or enter it in the Address bar and choose GO, left click the key then click Security on the top bar and click Take Ownership, once it confirms you are the owner then right click the keys and choose Delete.
