i have trouble with the security settings of the registry. There are some keys in HKLM and HKCR which don't have the correct permissions. When i try to take the owner ship as Administrator i get the nie message that some of the subkeys can't taken over from the owner ship, also some installations even as administrator report registry problems. Is there any way to set the registry security settings to the default values?

View 0 Replies View RelatedI designed my own directory structure in windows xp and used it as a template for software and file management on vista. (seems to have been a big mistake). Currently i have all my games installed just on a Games folder, created by me in the Program-Files folder. Steam needs to write its own config file for any edits i make, However when trying to do this is just reverts back to prior settings. (As with other games). I tried removing the read-only flag from the attributes looked like it had done, closed and re-opened window and sure enough its back again. NB: im logged onto a user account, set in Administrators Group, created by myself.
I then tried Security > Advanced > Owner > Edit to change from SYSTEM to Jamie (my username) After that, i also went to Security > Edit (To Change Permissions) > Add - Added Jamie as a user and set to full control.
However still i cannot change from Read-only for all subfolders also. So to save me the hassle, as i never seem to get malicious software anyway... how do i disable this whole, lets be safe and wear a condom crap that microsoft have put into this somewhat good but REALLY annoyingwhenitdoesntwork operating system.) Im Running Windows Vista Ultimate x64.
you put your real name or ur nickname on the registered user of the windows, u noe when u click on computer, press alt, then help, then about windows....

View 7 Replies View RelatedI purchased my HP from a big computer store with Vista home installed on it. It was an out of the box sale (I thought I could avoid a wait for the comptuer I wanted). The company that sold it to me was listed as the administrator. The old owner took off their password before I took possession of the computer I purchased. I followed instructions on how to put on a password to start the computer. However, there are dozens of fiels named after the previous administrator. I tried to find out how to change the administrator globally to my name. There is still an administrator account name and it appears the previous administrator is still above my permission status - even though i am the computer owner, don't think I am the ultimate administrator yet. I read that not being able to use screen print was a result of not being the administrator. I can't make the screen print work either. I assume some members have dealt with these matters before. I directing me to some good "how to fix" information.

I rolled back the driver, but that didn't help.
