+.SYNOPSIS
+Prepares the registry subkey operation by opening the relevant registry key based on the parameter set.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+This function prepares the environment for removing a registry subkey. It opens the correct registry key either by
+registry hive and path or by an existing registry key object, and returns the parent key and subkey name for further processing.
+
+.PARAMETER RegistryPath
+Specifies the path to the registry key to open. This is used only when the 'ByHive' parameter set is selected.
+
+.PARAMETER RegistryHive
+Specifies the registry hive where the key resides. This is used only when the 'ByHive' parameter set is selected.
+
+.PARAMETER ComputerName
+Specifies the name of the computer on which to perform the registry operation. This is used only when the 'ByHive' parameter set is selected.
+Defaults to the local machine if not specified.
+
+.PARAMETER ParentKey
+Specifies an existing registry key object from which to delete the subkey. This is used only when the 'ByKey' parameter set is selected.
+
+.PARAMETER SubKeyName
+Specifies the name of the subkey to delete.
+
+.PARAMETER ParameterSetName
+Specifies which parameter set is being used. It should be either 'ByHive' or 'ByKey'.

+.SYNOPSIS
+Deletes a registry subkey and all of its child subkeys from the specified parent key.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+The `Invoke-DeleteSubKeyTree` function deletes a specified subkey and all of its child subkeys from a provided registry key. It allows control over whether to throw an error if the subkey is missing.
+
+.PARAMETER ParentKey
+The parent registry key from which the subkey tree will be deleted. This parameter cannot be null.
+
+.PARAMETER SubKeyName
+The name of the subkey to delete, including all of its child subkeys. This parameter cannot be null or empty.
+
+.PARAMETER ThrowOnMissingSubKey
+Specifies whether an exception should be thrown if the subkey does not exist. Defaults to `$true`.
+
+.EXAMPLE
+$parentKey = [Microsoft.Win32.Registry]::LocalMachine.OpenSubKey('SOFTWARE\MyApp', $true)
+Invoke-DeleteSubKeyTree -ParentKey $parentKey -SubKeyName 'Settings'
+
+This command deletes the 'Settings' subkey and all its child subkeys under 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MyApp'.
+
+.EXAMPLE
+$parentKey = [Microsoft.Win32.Registry]::CurrentUser.OpenSubKey('SOFTWARE\MyApp', $true)
+Invoke-DeleteSubKeyTree -ParentKey $parentKey -SubKeyName 'TempSettings' -ThrowOnMissingSubKey $false
+
+This command deletes the 'TempSettings' subkey and all its child subkeys under 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\MyApp', and does not throw an exception if the subkey does not exist.
+
+.NOTES
+This function uses the .NET `Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey` class to interact with the Windows registry. Ensure you have appropriate permissions to perform registry modifications.

+.SYNOPSIS
+    Deletes a specified subkey from the Windows registry.
+.DESCRIPTION
+    The `Invoke-DeleteSubKey` function deletes a subkey from the Windows registry.
+    It provides flexibility to either pass a registry hive and path or an existing registry key object to delete the subkey.
+    It supports deleting subkeys on both local and remote computers.
+
+    This function is used internally by the `Remove-RegistrySubKey` cmdlet to delete a subkey from the Windows registry.
+    It is not intended to be used directly by end users.
+
+.PARAMETER ParentKey
+    Specifies the parent registry key object from which to delete the subkey.
+
+.PARAMETER SubKeyName
+    Specifies the name of the subkey to delete.
+
+.PARAMETER ThrowOnMissingSubKey
+
+    Indicates whether the function should throw an error if the subkey to delete does not exist.
+    If set to `$false`, no error will be thrown when attempting to delete a non-existent subkey. Defaults to `$true`.
+
+.INPUTS

+.OUTPUTS

+
+.EXAMPLE
+    $parentKey = [Microsoft.Win32.Registry]::LocalMachine.OpenSubKey('SOFTWARE\MyApp', $true)

+
+    This command deletes the 'Settings' subkey under 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MyApp' using the parent key object.
+
+.NOTES
+    This function uses the .NET `Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey` class to interact with the Windows registry.
+    It is recommended to run this function with appropriate permissions, as registry edits may require elevated privileges.
