In xp's administrator account when i run "regedit", it says something similar to " registry editing is disabled by your administrator". I cannot remember if I diabled registry editing or not .
Could anyone tell me how to enable registry editing.
thanks a lotkpsu

kpsu, Are you sure that you clicked on "Enable Registry Editing Tools" and NOT Disable then downloaded that reg file. It should work for Windows XP. Tufenuf
I followed instructions as follows ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Using the Group Policy Editor - For Windows XP ProfessionalDisableRegistryTools value corresponds to the Disable registry editing tools Group Policy
User Configuration \ Administrative Templates \ System
Click Start, Run and type GPEDIT.MSC to launch the Group Policy Editor, and set the policy to Not Configured
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
There is no "DisableRegistryTools" in
User Configuration\administrative templates\systemany help
thanks
I am sorry, I found it - Thanks a lot
kpsu, Glad to see that the problem is corrected & Thanks for posting back. Tufenuf
