When you install the Remote Access Service [RAS] and/or the Point to Point
Tunneling Protocol [PPTP], several registry keys are added or updated.
This article provides a list of those keys for a reference. This list may
be helpful in a situation where an uninstall or reinstall of the either
RAS or PPTP has failed. MORE INFORMATIONWARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may
require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve
problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own
risk. A few abbreviations have been used to enhance the readability of this article: CCS = CurrentControlSet HKCU = HKEY_CURRENT_USER HKLM = HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (x) = Number will vary with every computer depending on the bindings Registry Keys for RAS
