Required Update n/a
File Parameters no
Registry Parameters no
Build Parameters yes (third)
Special Parameters no
This SBI command is outdated and will probably not be supported in Spybot-S&D 2.0. As of yet, it is unclear whether an automated conversion path exists. Automated conversion paths may also be less sufficient than a manual upgrade. We recommend that you take a look at RegyKey for a possible alternative command.

Searches for uninstall information by the name of the registry key for that uninstaller.

Usage

UninstallByKey:<key(string)>,<partial(boolean)>[,advanced build parameters]

Examples

UninstallByKey:"mymalware","0"

This would detect the following registry key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\mymalware]
"DisplayName"="This Is Malware"
"UnInstallString"="\"C:\\Windows\\Malware\\MalwareUninstaller.exe\""


Description

  1. Name of key, either full or partial, depending on second parameter.
  2. If you know only part of the name or a version number is included, set partial to 1, else use 0.
