Hello. Welcome to 2-Spyware.com forums!

It was quite difficult to find a tool that would delete this registry entry. The problem is that this key has null values on the end and therefore couldn't be removed even from the administrator's account. However, with the Sysinternals freeware tool RegDelNull now you can completely get rid of WinHound Cool.

Please follow these steps:

1. Download the RegDelNull tool.

2. Extract its files to some directory or to the root of the main hard disk (C: ).

3. Now launch the Command Prompt (Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt or simply type cmd within the Start > Run... tool and press enter).

4. Navigate to the RegDelNull location (a certain folder or C: ).

5. Now invoke the RegDelNull tool with additional options:

regdelnull.exe HKLM\SOFTWARE -s

Press enter. RegDelNull will display the following message:

Null-embedded key (Nulls are replaced by '*'):
HKLM\SOFTWARE\WinHound.com\WinHound\WinHound\License*
Delete? (y/n)


Press y. This will remove the above key.

6. Launch the Registry Editor and delete the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WinHound.com key. You will not get any error messages and the WinHound entry will be completely removed.
