A few thoughts on how you might be able to get round the bug for the
moment.....
#Write a key containing / to the registry
$WshShell = no -com wscript.shell
$WshShell.RegWrite('HKCU\DeleteMe/Later\',"","REG_SZ")
#Enumerate subkeys
$strcomputer = ''
[Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("microsoft.win32")
$reghive = [Microsoft.Win32.RegistryHive]
$regkey =
[microsoft.win32.registrykey]:
penremotebasekey($reghive::CurrentUser,$strcomputer)
$regkey.GetSubKeyNames()
#Remove the key
$WshShell.RegDelete('HKCU\DeleteMe/Later\')
$regkey.GetSubKeyNames()
