Need to REMOVE a registry entry through batch file

[bledd]

I need to remove this entry on a lot of pc's

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]

"EFI Job Monitor"="C:\\WINNT\\system32\\rundll32.exe C:\\WINNT\\system32\\spool\\DRIVERS\\W32X86\\3\\efjm.dll,run"

How do I remove it? I know the "REGEDIT /s Remove.reg" part, not sure what to put in the reg file itself..

cheers

A "dash" in value will do it (it will delete the entry).

Example:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"EFI Job Monitor"=-

Similarly, you can even remove entire keys!

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]

That will delete the entire key which is listed.

Just stick this in a batch file.

REG DELETE HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run /v "EFI Job Monitor"

Deletes the registry value "EFI Job Monitor" under Run key.

[EDIT]

For remote computers, include the computer name before the path of the subkey in the \\ComputerName\PathtoSubkey format. Omitting ComputerName causes the operation to default to the local computer.

i.e.

REG DELETE \\TAURUS\HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run /v "EFI Job Monitor"

Deletes the registry value "EFI Job Monitor" under Run key on TAURUS.
