Error Writing Registry Vista
Contents |
mistake on Windows Vista, but even so I had a hard time finding the solution on Google so I thought I'd post about it. When I was trying to add a key in the Registry Editor, regedit.exe, I error writing to the registry windows 8 got an error message saying "Cannot create value: Error writing to the registry."I have never seen
Error Writing To The Registry Windows 7
this on XP (but then again I don't edit the registry that often), but since this is Vista with UAC (User Account Control)
Error Writing To Registry Key
I thought it might have to do with permissions so I tried to run regedit.exe as Administrator but to no avail. Finally I figured out that I did not have the right permissions in the registry tree.The solution is simply
Error Writing To Registry Key Hkey_local_machine
to right click on the folder and select Permissions. You may not even have the right to change the permissions, if this is the case then first you have to take ownership - click Advanced and then the Owner tab. Funny thing about my folder is that the owner was a group called "TrustedInstaller". After I had taken ownership, I wanted to change it back to the "TrustedInstaller" group but it was nowhere to be found. Apparently you can't error creating value error writing to the registry change it back - it is not a group but a service and part of Windows Resource Protection (WRP) as noted by Richard Civil and others in this TechNet post. Two other useful newbie things I found out - thanks to this post by Tim Sneath of Microsoft - when trying to figure out how to run a regedit.exe as Administrator in Vista was this: Run from the XP Start menu is now replaced with Start Search bar in Vista. Simply type regedit.exe (or cmd.exe etc.) in the search bar and hit Enter and it will run. To run an application with Administrator privileges using this method, instead of hitting Enter you hit Ctrl+Shift+Enter. 19 Comments (Click here to add your comment!)

ThanksXp10r3r_3X Anonymous Jul 12, 2007 @ 19:03:00 Thanks for the bit about restarting Outlook after setting securities on Macros. I guess I'm so used to Outlook telling me when it needs to restart that it didn't occur to me there would be a case where it wouldn't tell me. An

Things were going well until I had to install Outlook 2007 and Visio 2007 on my machine for some client work. After that Microsoft Office 2007 started trying error writing to to reconfigure itself every time i was launched. After some uninstalls, registry cleaning, re-installs, and various other experimental changes I was able to correct the "Configure" issue [for all programs except Visio and I'm willing to accept that]. However, during the process I lost the ability to do "File-->New-->Word Document" and "File--> New-->Excel Document", etc.. I tried repairing Office, but that did not add the menu items back in. After some searching it appears this issue can be fixed by adding registry keys, as described here. Unfortunately I am unable to add those registry keys. The reg files from the link give an error: "Error Accessing Registry". I opened up RegEdit and try to add the keys manually, I get get the error "Cannot Create Key: Error Writing to the Registry." I have also tried some programs such as Creative Elements Power Tools and FileTypesMan to address this issue, but neither one was able to solve it. I didn't get any errors from those tools, but it did not add items back into the "new" menu. For the most part my experiments have been with trying to get excel in th
