func main() {
	path := fmt.Sprintf("C:\\Test\\test\\test.exe")

	key, _, err := registry.CreateKey(registry.CURRENT_USER, "SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run", registry.ALL_ACCESS)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}
	defer key.Close()

	err = key.SetStringValue("ProjectTest", path)
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}

	err = registry.DeleteKey(key, "ProjectTest")
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Println(err)
	}

}

When delete key is ran it throws the error The system cannot find the file specified.

Why is this a Go bug? This is most likely an issue in your code, or in the "registry" library you're using. This issue tracker is only for bugs in Go itself.

@mvdan The issue is vague, but it is most likely using https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/sys/windows/registry so this is the correct issue tracker.

@Dontmindmes I would recommend you do the following to your code: In the "if err != nil {" handler, don't call fmt.Println, call log.Fatalf("failed to delete key: %v", err)

There is very likely some bug in your code.

Timed out in state WaitingForInfo. Closing.

(I am just a bot, though. Please speak up if this is a mistake or you have the requested information.)
