Some Keys/Values are restricted. You have to add your current
Username to the permissions table and then grant yourself Full
Control.
Right Click a Key Name, take the Permissions context option.
Click the Add Button - enter your username
In the Permissions box, Click Full Control & Click Apply
Afterwards, you will be authorized to remove the Key.
