I'm talking about script which shows additional data such as CLSID and codec location.

Revision 2. </p> <p>Because the Windows XP API does not support the RegDeleteTree function, the programmer has to query for subkeys of a registry key recursively, before he can delete it. This functions returns all subkeys of a registry key in deleteable order, which means the deepest subkey is the first in the list. </p> Win Registry module (Python) 2010-07-20T14:30:04-07:00Louis RIVIEREhttp://code.activestate.com/recipes/users/4035877/http://code.activestate.com/recipes/502268-win-registry-module/ <p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 502268 by <a href="/recipes/users/4035877/">Louis RIVIERE</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/registry/">registry</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/system/">system</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/windows/">windows</a>).
