Error while trying to run a visual Basic (.vbp) project in Visual Basic 6.0 with Windows 7 (64-bit) Enterprise saying "error access to registry system.

Hi guys,.

In my last computer the VB6 project worked with Windows XP but now I changed to Windows 7 and I can't run some application in visual Basic 6.0 that I still...    (I'm meaning to open the .vbp file to run in the environment of VB6 and not talking is not running the .exe).

When I open the .vbp (from Visual Studio Enterprise 6.0), then comes an error saying "The system registry access error" only on this Windows 7 (64 bit)...

I can not changes made in VB6 or compile programs is it my Windows 7?   There must be a solution that I think... something to execute or modify.

By the Way this is my first post on Microsoft Answers and hope to get lucky on that first and solve my problem; (O)

Thanks for any information

Hello

1 are logged as administrator?

2. is it works much earlier?

Method 1: Try to "Run as Administrator". VB6 needs to access the registry, and user account control sometimes gets in the way.

Method 2:

You can check the following link and check if it solves the problem:

PRB: Error access to the system registry ' Message When displaying VB/VBA references.

Method 3:

As you may have run the program under Windows XP, you can try to run it in compatibility mode and check if this solves the problem. See the following link for more information.
