What can I do to change an XP registry administrator, but not allowed

Computer is XP SP3. I'm in the management group. The only user. In the control panel listed as administrative rights. In the management of users and groups listed as administrative group. BUT I can't edit/change the registry somehow. Says not allowed. Error in editing the data. Cannot delete a test subkey.

Basically, I'm locked out to make changes to the registry. WHY? And what I can do to fix this?

Thank you.

Three things, you might want to try.
First of all, see if safe boot mode allows you access. (if a key is used, it may not let you delete it).

Second, if it is a recent development, try to do a system restore to a point in time before it's a problem. If not, choose a system restore point a few days back and try anyway.

"How to restore Windows XP to a previous state"
  <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/306084 >

Thirdly, check if you have permissions to delete the key.  In Regedit, right click on the key-> permissions.  Even administrators can deny access to key (but you are not allowed to change the permissions).

  • I can't enter in gmail. Error "page is not redirecting properly" is displayed. I can access gmail on my phone and with IE, but not firefox.

    I tried to clear the cache and delete cookies from gmail, but none worked. I can access gmail from my phone and through IE but not firefox. I also use the gmail gadget to my igoogle page and it does not work either.

    Tried all that precedes, and nothing has worked. I don't think it would be though, it is a new installation of windows 7 with very little installed. I wasn't expecting to find any virus/malware. The only thing found was an adware but removing those does not solve the problem.

    Edit: Uninstall and reinstall firefox did not work either.
    Edit2: I initially deleted all cookies associated with google and it does not work. I went back and remove all cookies, and it works now. Sorry I don't know what cookie was the cause of the problem.

  • When I am using firebug how to enable editing of css source code? I can use the 'Search' menu edit option but may not change the code. It will not allow that.

    I'm not allowed to modify the source code of my css. I can open a css file
    and see all the code but when I try to change the text, it
    won't do it. I thought I could edit text to update the css files. How do I do that?

    If your intention is to download the file changed on the server, then you must use an external editor.

  • Can I set up an account as an administrator, but control what account?

    Hello

    I would say you set the standard for your children account, because in the administrator account, you will have permissions to install, uninstall and remove a lot of things, so it is very difficult to verify what they shoot.

  • How can I activate on labels in the block diagram, but not on the front panel?

    This question may have been asked before, but searching the Forum did not.

    In LabVIEW 2010, I have 16 indicators of chain on the front panel. I can't have the label for each Visible on the front panel, so I turned it off. But in the block diagram, I need distinguqish one of the other, so I need to make the label (name) visible.

    In the block diagram, if I select indicators Sting all together and go to properties and make the label visible, it makes visible labels on the front but not visible in the block diagram. What good is that?

    How the help of labels (name) of the indicators String visible in the block diagram, but not visible on the front?

    Have you tried the things I said in that thread?  How did they not work?

    Right-click on the terminal of BD and make visible > labels.

    It probably will be the FP control show its label as well.  Then go to the FP control, right-click and go to Visible > labels and uncheck the box.

    The terminal of the comics will have a label, and control of the FP will not.

  • Changes to the registry administrator blocked

    Whenever I try to enter regedit, I get above message (I tried to translate Danish).  I'm not aware that I did something to get into this situation- but how to make out of it.   I am running XP SP3

    Delvist!

    Such things sometimes come in these groups, and you can see one or several, so I just difficulty em all at once if they need fixing or not.

    Even if you use a 'good' software of scans, it will usually leave these kinds of things only because they look like they could be legitimate changes made to the system and not infection.

    And, if you have had this problem, everything you use for protection has failed you.

    Not all programs scan all know.  Software to scan runs own does not mean there are no infecton.  It simply means that the scanning software does nothing that it recognizes.

    The MBAM and SAS are good things to use.  SAS will usually just seem to find a lot of tracking cookies, but sometimes taken things MBAM have not - yet.

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

  • Can you check data in a table or another, but not both in a single query?

    I have a situation where I need to connect the two tables, but the data can be in another table (archive) or different records are in both but I want the last disk in two tables:

    ACCOUNT

    AccountID name

    John Doe 123

    Jane 124 Donaldson

    125 Harold Douglas

    MARKETER_ACCOUNT

    AccountID key Marketer StartDate EndDate

    1001 123 10526 8/3/2008 9/27/2009

    1017 123 10987 9/28 / 2009 12/31/4712 (high date ~ that means currently with this Distributor)

    1023 124 10541 03/12/2010 12/31/4712

    ARCHIVES

    AccountID key Marketer StartDate EndDate

    1015 124 10526 8/3/2008 12/02/2010

    1033 125 10987 01/01/2011 01/31/2012

    If my query should return the following:

    123 John Doe 10526 8/3/2008 9/27/2009

    Jane Donaldson 10541 12/03/2010 31/12/124 4712 (that is the later of the two folders for this account between tables Archives and marketer_account)

    125 Harold Douglas 10987 01/01/2011 01/31/2012 (it is in the archives, so get this recording)

    I'm not sure how to do this in a single query.  Beware, I am possibly reading several accounts at once and return to a .net collection

    Open CURSOR_ACCT

    Select the account ID

    Of

    ACCOUNT A,

    MARKETER_ACCOUNT M.

    R OF THE ARCHIVES

    where A.AccountID = nvl ((select max (M.EndDate) of Marketer_account M2

    where M2. AccountID is A.AccountID),

    (select max (R.EndDate) in Archive R2

    where R2. AccountID = A.AccountID)

    and upper (B.SID) as a parameter. '%'

    < can you do a NVL like that?   probably not...   I want to be able to get the MAX registration for this account on the table of MarketerACcount OR recording max for this account to off the table to Archive, but not the two >

    (setting could be 'DO', so I return all names beginning with...)

    Hello

    So, you have a few lines in marketer_account and the other rows in the archives, but you do not want to treat all lines, as if it were a table, is it?

    This sounds like a job for the UNION:

    WITH union_data AS

    (

    SELECT StartDate, EndDate, Marketer, AccountID

    OF marketer_account

    UNION ALL

    SELECT StartDate, EndDate, Marketer, AccountID

    To archive

    )

    got_MaxEndDate AS

    (

    SELECT StartDate, EndDate, Marketer, AccountID

    MAX (EndDate) ON (AccountID PARTITION) AS MaxEndDate

    Of union_data

    )

    SELECT a.AccountID, B.SID

    m.Marketer, m.StartDate, m.EndDate

    One ACCOUNT

    JOIN got_MaxEndDate m ON m.AccoutnID = a.AccoundID

    WHERE m.EndDate = m.MaxEndDate

    ;

    I hope that answers your question.
    If this is not the case, after a CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for your sample data.
    Report when the above query is the production of incorrect results and explain, using specific examples, how to get results in these places.

  • On my iPad, can I move files from one folder to another, but not in the Preview file, why?

    When you manage files in iCloud, from an iPad, I can move to the files from one folder to another, but not in the Preview file. Secondly, when I check the file Preview to iCloud from Mac content is so different when you look at an iPad. Why is the gap between the iPad and the Mac?

    Try to go to iCloud.com to see if the elements are there and whether the device or the computer. That should indicate if the device or computer is not synchronizing. If the computer, try going to System Preferences/iCloud and stop synchronization. Wait a few minutes, then recheck the timing. If the device, go to settings/iCloud and do the foregoing.
