Regedit Load Hive Grayed Out
Thanks(0) QuoteReply Topic: regedit question - unable to load hive errorPosted: 16 July 2009 at 11:13pm ntuser.dat windows 7 Hi all,I have a generic question. What are the likely causes if regedit fails to load a hive? I get the cannot load hive error. I realize the hive reg load is corrupted, but... is there some sort of deeper explanation? I am able to access the hive using 3rd party software... wondering if there's something i can add/fix so that i can load the hive for easier viewing/fixing.TIA molotov Members Profile Send Private Message Find Members Posts Add to Buddy List Moderator Group Joined: 04 October 2006 Status:

If you know third-party software will load the hive, is there some reason you are not able to use the third-party software to do the work you need, in the first place?Have you tried opening (a copy of) the hive on a newer version of Windows?

But what if you want to make changes to the Registry of another user of the system?It should be clear that you can only do so if you have the proper rights on the system, but if you do, you can easily load the Registry information of any other user in the Windows Registry editor to modify preferences there.It is http://forum.sysinternals.com/regedit-question-unable-to-load-hive-error_topic19671.html actually easy to load other Registry hives using the built-in Registry editor of the system. Let me show you how that is done.First thing you need to do is start the editor. You do that by bringing up the run box with the keyboard shortcut Windows-R, typing regedit and tapping on the enter key afterwards.Note that you may get a UAC prompt http://www.ghacks.net/2008/03/12/windows-tip-edit-user-registry-of-other-users/ depending on security settings and the version of Windows that you are running which you need to accept.Mark the HKEY_USERS folder in the Registry and select File > Load Hive from the menu at the top. Note that the Load Hive option may be grayed out if you have selected a different Registry root folder.The default directory that opens is the directory of the user who is currently logged in. You need to browse to the user directory of the user account that you want to modify the Registry for. Those accounts are listed under the Documents and Settings folder in Windows Vista or the users folder if you are running Windows 7 or newer versions of the Windows operating system.Open the folder and look for the file ntuser.data. The file is hidden by default and you may need to enable the display of hidden files or folders on your system before you can see and select the file.Double-click on the file afterwards which loads it in the Registry editor as a subfolder of the HKEY_USERS folder there. You can then make chan

When attempting to load the hive, I get a prompt with the following message: "Cannot Load C:\Users\Default\NTUSER.DAT.LOG: Error while loading hive." windows 7 The task I am trying to achieve is the following: When a new user first logs into Windows, a .cmd or .bat script will run to - create a series of subfolders within the user's %HOMEPATH%\Documents folder - pin items to Windows 7's taskbar I already have the .cmd file that does these successfully when executed; ntuser.dat error while however, is there a way to get it to automatically execute the first time a user logs into their account?

So, I recommand to you to test it and see if it is what you want. As I see in this Microsoft article, the configuration is made by editing some registry entries. For that reason, I recommand to you to backup your Windows 7 system state before testing. This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.

Does anyone know a good program that will allow this to be done? I do not want to import this into my registry but rather view it as a slave. Thanks for the help.

Jun 24, 2005 at1:22PM Back a few years ago, Norton Utilities came with an alternative to the Registry Editor, AFAIK it could open those NTUSER.DAT files... but only for NT4 Tommy4 Jun 24, 2005 at1:25PM Thanks but this mainly for XP and will be used for a few 2k boxes. Mike Dimmick Jun 24, 2005 at2:53PM It's free, and it's already on your system: Regedit. File/Load Hive. For Windows 2000 use regedt32. Tommy4 Jun 24, 2005 at6:05PM First thank you for the suggestion. load hive does not allow the ntuser.dat to be opened. Regedit does not accomplish the needed task. I need to open a users registry with outloading it into my computers. I need to be able to view it in a separate program. Thanks W3bbo Work hard; increase production; prevent accidents, and behappy.
