I have a msconfig script that clears out unwanted entries for work, sometime computers have blank ones that have been previously unselected, is there a way to remove these entries?

If i select them all first my script gets them sorted but doesnt seem to grab the unchecked ones.

I remove the files like this

$sRegString &= "|ZoneAlarm Installer|ZooskMessenger|zzzHPSETUP|zzz_ImInstaller_IncrediMail"
Global $aRegKeys = StringSplit($sRegString, "|")

Global $Deleted = ""
$sRegKey = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run"
For $i = 1 To $aRegKeys[0]
    RegRead($sRegKey, $aRegKeys[$i])
    If @error = 0 Then
        RegDelete($sRegKey, $aRegKeys[$i])
        $Deleted &= $aRegKeys[$i] & "|"
        Sleep(100)
    EndIf
Next

Check this registry key and subkeys, there are all the info about the items in your screen:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSConfig\

jguinch nice your _RunWaitChids and _ProcessWaitCloseRec, can be useful

Look at using ccleaner. Free app and you will wonder why you haven't had this in your toolbox.
