Does anyone know if there is a way to search the registry using the find command and then delete all of those keys in batch? I am trying to make an easier way to clean all the reg files in a key with batch, but dont know how.
set /p key= Key:
I only posted that bit of code to help understand what I am trying to do, I would like for when the user inputs that variable it searches th registry for that key and deletes it. is this possible?

If you know the key, and you need to delete every entry in the key, then just use a wildcard.
A quick google search shows me http://domainwebcenter.com/?p=1392 and http://www.edugeek.net/forums/windows-7/83511-delete-registry-key-wildcard.html
Using VBS might be a bit easier tho.

VBS would work better. You can have it open regedit, do the search ie Ctrl+f then have it enter your search screen, delete the key and f3 to search again

Ugh... what? why go the macro way? VBS is capable of interacting with Registry on his own.
