VB addins--cleaning up registry

I've written a VB program as a tool for VB SW Addin development. It
cleans out all of the registry entries for the addin .dll, including
SW addin keys and toolbar key entries. I find this to be handy when
doing multiple compilings of a program.

If there is enough interest (1 person), I will post it.

Since registry editing is a sensitive topic, I will make the source
code available and not just hide behind an .exe.

 

I do a lot of VB Addin, and yes I do have problems in the registry, so
your utility will be very usefull. Especially the keys in
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT bugs me.

Just for inspiration: I have some dificulties when I use a
setup-routine on a forrign computer. Sometimes my addin will connect
to SW and sometimes not. And uninstalling a previous version of the
addin is only sometimes succesfull. (SW not running) I decided to use
setup because some addins access many files that must be on
hard-drive. I use the "Package and Deployment Wizzard" combined with a
script. I also found that on some computers some addins does not run
unless I install VB6 and uninstall it again. (All files asked for by
the wizzard included)

I hope this is enough interest.
