How do I search for a certain text in the registry? I would like to search
for a DisplayName in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall so
that I can locate the UninstallString to uninstall the software
automatically. Do I need a VCL to do this?

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
