I'm writing a little utility that allows the user to enable/disable the smb:// url scheme.

In the case of URL scheme helper preferences, IC gateways through to Launch Services. Launch Services has no way to delete a URL scheme helper (other than by removing all the applications that claim this URL scheme), so you get this error.

About the only workaround that I can think of is, to disable the URL scheme, install your own URL scheme handler (that does nothing), and then set that as the default.

You can do this, at least since 10.4, with Launch Services directly.
