Example

Call Profile.RegistryDeleteValue( HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT,
		     '.ifm', strNULL )
Call Profile.RegistryDeleteValue( HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT,
            'ifm_auto_file\\shell', 'Enable' )

C# code (RegistryDeleteValue in turn calls _ProfileRegistryDeleteValue)

Ext._ProfileRegistryDeleteValue(Const.HKEY_CURRENT_USER,
 	Const.REGISTRY_KEY_PersonalProfile + Vis.StrSubstitute(sSection, ".", "\\"), sEntry);
