Follow the steps below to manually remove registry entries:

1. To open the Registry Editor, press the “Start” button and then choose the option “Run”. In the “Open” field, type “regedit” and click the “OK” button.
   
   
2. The Registry Editor has two panes. The left pane is to navigate on certain registry keys and the right pane is to see values of selected keys.
   
   
3. To edit the value, right-click on it and select the “Modify” option.
   
   
4. You can also double-click on the value with your left mouse button. Another option is to use the “Edit” menu, where you type in the chosen value in the window and click the “OK” button. You can do the same with any other value or registry key.
   
   
5. Follow the same steps as just described to delete the value or the registry key. On this step, you will have to select the “Delete” option. If you get a list of results, you may want to plug them into the Web before you delete them, just to be sure you’re erasing malware-related keys.
   
   
6. To add a new registry key or a new value, click on the “Edit” menu. Then, select option “New” and select a type for the entry.
   
   
7. To export any key or value from the registry to the defined file, right-click on the object and select “Export” from the menu.
   
   
8. Enter a file name and save the exported registry files as a .reg extension.
   
   
9. It is also possible to import a certain value or a key. Click on the “File” menu and choose “Import”. Then, select the objects that you want to import.
   
   
10. Close the registry editor and reboot your computer. If something appears wrong after you change the registry, you can restore the registry from the backup you’ve created.

It's hard to remove the virus in the Windows System Registry, because it's not easy to find where the virus hides. Also, it's danger to edit the data inside the registry. If you enter or delete wrong key, data or value, Windows might be unable to run after that. Here we just show you how to check any unwanted program loaded into the memory when Windows start.

1. To change the registry data needs to run Microsoft Registry Editor - RegEdit.exe. You can click the Start Button, then select Run... item. When the Run Window will appear, then type 'RegEdit' into Open: textbox and click OK button.
   
   
2. You might be unable to RegEdit, because the virus blocks the doorway. In this case, you need to bring up your Windows in Safe Mode to run the RegEdit. Sometimes, you need to login the Administrator account. Therefore, make sure you know your Administrator account's password when you own the new computer.
   
   
3. Microsoft System Configuration Utility MSConfig.exe keeps entries of Start-Up programs. Besides that, System Registry has Run, RunOnce and RunOnceEx entry nodes to manage which program can run while Windows is starting. First, you should check any starting programs inside the HEKY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
   
   
   
4. Go down to the node in HEKY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion, then look for program entry inside the Run, RunOnce and RunOnceEX. If you find something you don't know, then you type the program name .exe name into the following Search box to find out what's that. If the .exe name is the virus or spyware, then you can delete it. It's same that you need to check any starting program inside the HEKY_CURRENT_USER.
   
   
5. Go down to the node in HEKY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion, then look for unwanted .exe programs inside the Run, RunOnce and RunOnceEX. If you find something, then delete them.
   
   
6. Some virus will restore the entry later or reboot, even you delete the entry from System Registry Editor. Those virus needs special tools to kill them.
