Deleting Registry values with a .reg file

Sometimes you just want to do something simple in a batch file, and I'd always thought it wasn't possible to 'delete' a value in a .reg file (as the file is applied as a 'merge'), but it is...

Just replace the value with a - (minus)...

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoDriveTypeAutoRun"=-
