How can I delete a registry key I rolled out to users using a .reg file
without having to use regedit at each machine. Is there a way to automate
this?

Thanks

Merge another reg file with the "delete" syntax.
Note the hyphen ("-") in each example.

Remove KEY:
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.zzz]

Remove VALUE:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.zzz]
"InfoTip"=-

Does not work for a ("Default") valuename. Use:
@=-
