Unable to delete a registry Key. I cannot change the permissions because it
will not display on this key. I cannot take ownership either. How can I
delete this key.
Thank you for your help
If this is XP Home, try from Safe Mode. To get into Safe Mode, boot the
computer into Safe Mode. Do this by repeatedly tapping the F8 key as the
computer is starting up. This will get you to the right menu. Navigate
using your Up arrow key; the mouse will not work here.
