Windows 7 IT Pro > Windows 7 unable to delete registry key access denied Installation, Setup, and Deployment General discussion 4 Sign in to vote Anyone tried deleting error while deleting key windows 10 a registry key in Windows 7? Got "access denied" or "Error while deleting key"? The usual response is, "You need registrar registry manager to run regedit as an administrator". but I *AM* logged in as Administrator, and running regedit as administrator, trying to assign administrator full permissions on that registry key in order to delete it!! http://kb.laplink.com/index.php/article/printer/1055 Am I mistaken, or isn't Administrator supposed to be able to administer and control all the settings on the computer, in order to set it up for the "Average Joe" user? So, under the permissions menu of that key, go to advanced, change the owner from System to Administrator, and try again. It's no longer saying "access denied", but "Cannot delete xxxxxx. Error while deleting key". The scenario: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/56fed319-a532-46a4-a384-fd795998c4a3/regedit-permissions-access-denied-or-error-while-deleting-key-even-as-admin?forum=w7itproinstall Basically, the wireless has stopped working on a laptop. The device does not show up in Device Manager, but is in the registry, so the normal procedure is to delete the registry entry for the device in HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet (and /ControlSet001) /Enum/PCI ,then attach the device or restart the computer, it finds the "new" hardware and reinstalls it. Easy!... Not with permission restrictions on the administrator account it's not! So I need to give myself permission, to give myself permission, to do a simple task like delete a single registry key! Why, Microsoft, why???!!! Please just make the Administrator account a hidden "God mode" account that can do anything, and make the lives of us techies much easier in the process! /RANT Now, where did I put that XP disc?!....
