How to delete the corrupted registry key

I try to install the Excel 2010 beta, but it says Office 2003 is damaged and must be repaired or removed and will not be installed (I have several versions of Excel is installed, including 2003).

So I tried to run a repair of Office 2003 from the Office 2003 installation, but it says:

Error 1402. Setup cannot open the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\OptionalComponents\MSFS registry key. Make sure you have sufficient permissions to access the registry...

I tried:

-Deletion of the key in regedit. It won't do. FWIW, it does not make changes to it as an added value and does not remove the key from its parent.

-Assignment of permissions for the key myself. It won't do.

-Taking possession of the key. It does not.

-Execution 'Free Windows Registry Repair 2.0' and do a full scan. There are lots of things to fix, but it does not solve this problem.

-Run PSEXEC PSTOOLS of to run regedit under the system account and appropriate by the system account. It does not.

-Execution of RegDelNull.exe and make full analysis focused on HKLM and analysis. In both cases, he found nothing to fix.

Is there a way to make a deletion of the brute force of a registry key? What can I do?

Thank you

Greg

FWIW, in case someone found this looking for an answer to the same question, you gave me the answer on answers.yahoo.com. The answer was to log on under administrator account (not just any account which is part of the Administrators group, but the account specifically named 'Administrator') and assign permissions to this account. It worked.

    How can I find and repair a corrupted registry key

    It would be useful to know a number of facts that you forgot:

    1. Windows version, including service pack
    2. Your HP printer model
    3. The error message that you initially received which led you to try the FixIt
    4. The web address of the FixIt tool you tried (NOT FixIt Center home page, but the page where you downloaded or run the FixIt tool).
    5. The full text of the error message on "registry keys corrupted MSI.

    That being said, it seems that if you have installed and then try to uninstall any software related to the printer.  If this is the case, and the printing software cannot be uninstalled from Control Panel > Add / Remove Programs, you can use either the Utility Microsoft Windows Installer Cleanup or (free) Revo Uninstaller.

    Truth in advertising: you may notice that the link to the Windows Installer Cleanup utility is not a Microsoft site.  It's because Microsoft has removed it stating that he sometimes 'cleaned' more that she was supposed to.  Personally, I would use it again, but I would back up the registry first of all, with a restore of the system or C:\windows\eruntpoint.

    After that you have uninstalled whatever it is, you have tried to uninstall, see instructions here: Article 1

    Well I dug on the web and found someone with the same problem, and they said that when they have disabled "McAfee VirusScan 8.5 Access Protection", this error has disappeared. If this applies to you, give it a whirl if you wish.

    But the best support that I found came from this website: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/838687. The jist of it is (trying to fix it yourself):
    Fix it myself to fix this problem yourself, follow these steps:

    1. Log the computer by using an administrator user account.
    2. Start Microsoft Windows Explorer.
    3. On the Tools menu, click Folder Options.
    4. Click the view tab.
    5. Under hidden files and folders, click Show hidden folders and files.
    6. Clear the Hide extensions for known file types check box, and then click OK.
    7. Open the following folder: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\Data\
    8. If you are running Office 2003, right-click Opa11.dat, and then click Properties. If you are running Office XP, right-click Data.dat, and then click Properties.
    9. Click the Security tab.
    10. Click Advanced.
    11. Click the permissions tab.
    12. Click to select everyone in the list entered permissions and then click change.
    13. Click to select the full control check box.
    14. Click OK three times. If these steps do not resolve this issue, delete the Opa11.dat file or the Data.dat file in the following folder and then restart an Office 2003 program or an Office XP program:
      C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\Data

    jmsandkds,

    I apologize for the confusion. Options you speak of "photos, web and file" are located on the phone somewhere, lets say you click files. When you click on files, it will search the phone for available files that are able to print the ePrint app. To the extent where they are on the phone, you will need to search for them via the search screen, connection to the computer, or some files are program specific and only available in this program to be read, edited, or deleted.

    Dell provided you with restore/recovery media and/or a way to restore the machine 'default' as a key sequence?  If so - you won't need the number--unless they just sent a DVD of Windows 7 nu - and they are usually not unless you ask.

    They have probably installed using their key, which means that even with a utility like Belarc Advisor or ProduKey - you will not get the product key that matches the one on the sticker.

    Some may have you take several different digital pictures of the sticker from different angles and see if you can decipher the missing characters like that (you'd be surprised to see how that works).

  • How can I check and delete the corrupted files?

    I was told that my laptop performance could be carried out by missing or corrupt files. I can't find the system check in the Panel, and it is not found when I try to kick it and run. I don't have the original recovery or installation disk disk.

    According to the page I've linked in the other post: Hard Drive16 GB (Solid State Drive Flash Module).  Solid State Drive SSD =

    You can always do another:

    Check and repair corrupt files is to open cmd in the start menu, then right click "Run as Administrator".  Then type chkdsk c: / r

    • If you get an error "Chkdsk cannot run", type in, ChkDsk runs on your next Windows startup

    Who will eventually fix any corrupt system files, but not others.  You suspect corruption in the other or all of the files, then probably the SSD is having problems.  That can be fixed with conventional methods, as far as I KNOW.  Maybe time to replace it with a new SSD or hard drive classic, if possible.  Don't know how HP implimented the SSD in the mini.

    Since there is no DVD/CD drive integrated into the unit, get an external hard drive or USB key and backs up all data that you consider important before things get worse.  You can buy 16 GB flash drives or bigger, so that would be my suggestion.  Just copy everything on a flashdrive before anything else is done.

  • After you export a photo library of backup, how to delete the photos in the photo library of the system

    Hi, I use the pictures 1.2

    Each year, I export my library on a backup drive and give it the name of the given year. My next task was to remove unwanted pictures (about 10 K photos) from that same year, then keep those 'important' for me (stuff of family, work and other landscapes and al. stuff: about 2 000 pictures.) I don't remember how I used to do with iPhotos, but it seemed obvious. Now, with Photos, I see only two choices: either watch the complete list of the photos, then click on those that I don't have anymore (I do not see me scroll 12 000 photos and videos) opening of the events at the time and the option click all photos to delete (and not just remove them from the event).

    Deleting events without opening it won't because I get a message telling me (for good or bad reasons) that the photos are always going to be there. But then, imagine that I could remove the same with content pictures, I have about 300 events to remove, and they can be deleted one at a time.

    So my question is (and I already put it as a feature request to apple, just in case) how I mass delete unwanted items and their photos, or better yet, how can we keep all the photos that I like (Favorites, for example, or photos with celebrities...) and delete the rest?

    My library contains more than 200 GB on my MacBook Pro 500 GB HDD. I can't let it grow to 150 GB each year. and I guess I'm not the only one with this problem. In addition, I travel a lot in many countries with bad Internet connections, so I won't use iCloud.

    Thank you!

    How are 'export' your photo of the backup library?  You create a copy of your current photo on the backup disk library or using "file > export" to export the photos? Just to be sure, that your photos are safe.

    My next task was to remove unwanted pictures (about 10 K photos) from that same year, then keep those 'important' for me (stuff of family, work and other landscapes and al. stuff: about 2 000 pictures.) I don't remember how I used to do with iPhotos, but it seemed obvious.

    You can quickly find the photos to delete by creating a smart album with the rule "the Photo is not favorite" and "Date is in the range...". »

    File > new Smart Album:

    You can add a rule "keyword is not 5 stars", if you have added the side star as well.

    Then, select a range of photos in this smart album and enter the ⌘⌫ (command + delete) key combination.

    This will completely clear photos of the library.

    You can use the same combination of keys to remove the photos from iPhoto event albums in the Album section.  If you simply enter the delete key, the photo will be deleted only from the album, but remain in the library.
