Editing or Removing a Registry Key or Value

You can remove an existing registry key on a mobile device through a mobile device profile. Make changes to the key from the profile and apply the profile. If it is a mobile device profile, deploy the profile; if it is a Scan to Config profile, print and scan the barcodes. You must know the name of the key/value in order to remove it.

Note: In order to edit or remove a registry key value, you must add the registry key to the profile even if the key already exists on the device. For more information on adding a registry key, see Adding a Registry Key to a Mobile Device Profile.
