Hello Brian,
I am glad that you found the solution for this problem.
It might be that installing some of the software on this machine has
changed the permissions on this key.
I don't think there might be another reason for this.

Thanks,

| Hi Bassel,
| Thanks much, that did the trick for tracking down and fixing the problem.
| The cause is still a mystery to me.
|
| RegMon showed that the key getting an ACCESS DENIED was
| HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Description\Microsoft\Rpc\UuidTemporaryData
|
| Comparing permissions on that key on the bad and good machines showed that
| somehow most of the permissions and some of the users that have access to
| that key were somehow removed on the bad machines. If you have any clue
what
| might cause that let me know. Wonder if it was some errant install or
| uninstall I ran on both machines at some point.
|
| If not, no biggie. Thanks much for the fix, and for adding another
| technique/tool to my debugging/troubleshooting bag of tricks!
| Brian
