I'm (sadly) building some VB6 code on a virgin Windows 7 x64 bit box with a MINIMUM vb6.exe install (I unchecked EVERY option). And got stuck and found this. I'd give you 20 up points if I could. VB6 sucks. COM sucks. This post was awesome. –granadaCoder May 9 '12 at 1

When I tried to run my model on another computer, I got the same error message. So the sudden appearance of this problem seems to be related to my model (rather than the VB 6 (SP6) installation on my computers that run on Vista). Would you have http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?545433-RESOLVED-Sudden-quot-Error-accessing-the-system-registry-quot any idea how to proceed? Thank you for your help.

I just close the IDE then open it back up again. It usually works on the 2nd try. No idea why. --DB Reply With Quote Nov 2nd, 2008,05:40 PM #3 FSPH View Profile View Forum Posts Thread Starter Member Join Date Aug 2007 Posts 36 Re: Sudden "Error accessing the system registry" I did that this morning without any effect. In fact, I shut down the computer and re-tried it right afterwards, again without any success. A few hours later I restarted the computer again, and then it worked. My problem may have had to do with the time switch last night (in Canada) from summer to regular time. At least that's the only thing that changed to my knowledge.

a component or Referrence to vb6 Project it give me this error msg : error accessing the system registry how i can fix that ??? sry again Hiba Alkhatib HibaPro -3 127 posts since Jun 2012 Community Member 2Contributors 1Reply 2Views 4 YearsDiscussion Span 4 Years Ago Last Post by AndreRet 0 AndreRet 362 4 Years Ago Here is a few solutions... This is because it runs a service which creates registry keys under the SYSTEM account. When VB tries to enumerate the keys under HKCR\TypeLib it fails and gives the error because the user running VB6.EXE (even if it set to run as administrator) does not automatically have READ rights to the key. At that point you get the "Error accessing the system registry" dialog. To workaround/fix this: Download Procmon and PsExec from sysinternals. Run Procmon and add a "ProcessName" filter with VB6.EXE as the process name. Then Select Project->References. And the error dialog should pop up. Switch to procmon and scroll to the end of the events list - you're looking for the last "ACCESS_DENIED" message for opening a registry key under HKCR\TypeLib. Thats the first key you need to change permissions on - so you'll need to run regedit in the same account context that the keys were created in - the SYSTEM account. to do this install psexec on the windows PATH somewhere then run: psexec -i -d -s c:\windows\regedit.exe (obviously change the path if yours is different) this will run regedit through the SYSTEM account. You can verify that even the administrator account does NOT have permission to edit these keys by running regedit through a Start->Run dialog as this elevates the priv' level to administrator. Find the key you identified in step 4 - right click it and select Permissions. Find the current logged on user that you use to run VB6 with and add them with full control to the permissions list. Repeat steps 3-7 because there may be more keys that exhibit this behaviour, until the Project->References dialog appears in VB6 without error. You could also open the .vbp in notepad to see the references if y
