Launch Regedit with no open Keys

Regedit stores the last key that was open in the registry. This script clears the last remembered key from the registry and opens Regedit at the top with no open keys.

Dim objShell, RegKey, Q
Set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
            strQuote = chr(34)       
RegKey = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Regedit"
RegKey = RegKey & "\LastKey"
objShell.RegWrite RegKey, ""
objShell.Run "%systemroot%\System32\regedt32"

Copy this code into a text file and save it as a .vbs file. (regedit.vbs, for example).

I put mine in the windows directory and created a shortcut to it on the taskbar. I don't really like the vbs icon. :)

Sorry If this is already on the site. I did search for it but there are a lot of tweaks

here.

Cheers,
