Is there an exception for a registrykey not found?

Is there? I couldnt find one
And I need it for my code because some other error may occur and I will have no idea if the registrykey was not found or something.

If youre using Settings, then you can do this...

Dim Settings(,) As String = GetAllSettings("SomeApp", "SomeSection")

If Not Settings Is Nothing Then
    Exists
else
    Does not
end if

No, im using the registry classes from the Win32 namespace. If I dont have any error handling for the registry key specifically, it could result in some bad things

If the key does not exist the RegistryKey object returned will be null (the Nothing keyword in Visual Basic .NET).

Never thought of that, thanks Derek.
