CBaseFilter.Unregister method
[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]
The Unregister method removes the filter from the registry.
Note
This method is obsolete. New filters should be unregistered using the AMovieDllRegisterServer2 function. For more information, see How to Register DirectShow Filters.
