So what exactly is missing from your solution in the other post? Why do you want to delete all registry with Sophos?
That script does not clear all. It leaves say 200+ Sophos keys still
OK. It's just dangerous to automatically delete stuff from the registry.

Maybe we can log all entries first and then decide which should be deleted.
Ok
Can we log it some way.?
There's nothing I know of that would get the output I think we'll need.

So something like:

HKLM\Software\Sophos
HKLM\Software\Sophos\AntiVirus\Open\Command\cmd="C:\Program Files\Sophos\SMon.exe"
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\Recent\1="SophosRegSettings.doc"
....
ok if this can be got into the other post batch script that will be fine..
HKLM\Software\Sophos
HKCU\Software\Sophos
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Sophos Agent"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SavService"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SAVAdminService"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Sophos AutoUpdate Agent"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Sophos AutoUpdate Service"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Sophos Certification Manager"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Sophos EMLib Update Agent"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SEMscheduler"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Sophos Management Service"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Sophos Message Router"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SQLAgent$SOPHOS"
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSSQL$SOPHOS"
"HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\Sophos"
