<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
We have a bad application in our environment which has broken the permissions on a registry key.<br />
<br />
I am looking to create a VBScript that will check if 'SYSTEM' has permissions on a registry key HKLM\Software\Application\<wbr />Component<br />
<br />
If SYSTEM does not have permission on the key then I want it to delete from HKLM\Software\Application down as the application will be reinstalled and it will repopulate the key with the correct permissions. As the permissions have been stripped out, the installation will not work.<br />

Thanks<br />

VBScript that will query registry permissions

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
