I need help with a Powershell Script I need to delete any Registry keys, values or Dwords
We updated our print server. I need to remove any Values, Friendly names, or DWORDs that reference the old print server. The old printers were pushed out via GPO by username, and we have computers with up to 50 copies of the same printer, I already tried editing the deployment scripts that did not remove them. I found a few scripts, but none of them seem to remove all of the entries
Here is one of the scrips I am trying to edit
$PrinterReg = Get-ChildItem -Path Registry::HKLMSYSTEMCurrentControlSetEnumSWDPRINTENUM*
$PrinterName = “\Starbase16*”
Foreach ($DeletePrinter in $PrinterReg){
$FriendlyName = $DeletePrinter.GetValue(“Friendlyname”)
if($FriendlyName -eq $PrinterName){
Remove-Item -path $DeletePrinter.PSPath -Recurse
Write-Host “Removing $friendlyname from $($DeletePrinter.PSPath)”
}}
Here are all the Keys that contain Starbase16
