I guess, if you right click on your install project, View -> Registry, you can add a registry key to the list.
The key has properties (right click -> Properties) AlwaysCreate, and DeleteAtUninstall, which should perform what you need in Registry table. Don't add a value to the key, set AlwaysCreate to false, and DeleteAtUninstall to true.
Will this do?
