Delete Déjà Vu entries from the Windows Registry

Deleting or modifying entries in the registry incorrectly can cause problems in Windows, so changes to the Registry must be done carefully. The script ensures this.

Sometimes, it is useful to delete all the Déjà Vu related entries from the Windows registry, so that you can use the Déjà Vu installer to replace them with default values.

Use an automatic script

You can download and run a script that will delete the appropriate entries from the Registry. This is the recommended method, since it guarantees that only the entries related to Déjà Vu will be deleted, and nothing elsenote. To find out how to do this, click on the version of Déjà Vu you are using, below:
