Windows Vista/Seven/2K8: How to fix 'Error 1402. Could not open key: UNKNOWN...' The error is generally caused by insufficient or incorrect permissions on the named registry keys, or parent container of such registry keys. For Okino, it occurred on multiple occasions after upgrading some of our machines from Windows 2K3 to 2K8 server or from XP to Windows 7, and then upgrading/re-installing Microsoft products or components (Visual Studio and MSXML4 in our case). It is generally a simple matter to fix, once you know how. We recommended that you back-up your computer or at least the registry before taking this action. Microsoft's built-in backup program allows for the "system state" to be selectively backed up. Or, you can ZIP up the "windows\system32\config" directory while running in a backup operating system (this is where the registry hive files are located). You must be logged in as the 'administrator' (or an account with full administrator access) as well as disabling

RESOLUTION The installer/uninstaller is attempting to write to the specified registry key (or hive, i.e. root key) and permission for that registry key is restricted.

In the Group or User names field, select the user installing the program. Be sure the user has administrative rights. 6. Under the Permissions field, make sure "Full Control" and "Read" are both set to "Allow." 7. Click OK and attempt the operation again. In some case
