Powershell commands to search HKU
I have a question where i need to write a script which can search the following hives and delete any String value names which match my criteria.
i need to be able to search the entire HKU hive and HKLM
Example, i need to delete any key name that would be called "Malware A" and another one called "Malware B"
They tend to be listed under these directories below but if theres a way to search the entire registry that would be great
HKU\S-1-5-18\SOFTWARE\MICR
HKU\S-1-5-21-1172670090-10
HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432NODE\
I would prefer to be able to launch the script easily via CMD if possible open powershell via CMD

Thanks but viewed that already it doesn't show how to store the keys and delete them as requested, its just a basic search command.
