Moderators hazelnut Posted May 5, 2007 Moderators Share Posted May 5, 2007 I take it you had no problem running dial-a-fix and rebooted afterwards. Can you show a screenshoot of the items (or list them) and also give your operating system.

Can you show a screenshoot of the items (or list them) and also give your operating system. No problems with dial-a-fix except that it didn?t solve the problem. The problem itself is solved; it was due to the wrong permissions on those reg keys. I solved it by applying the fix described here. --> http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/200.../04/739820.aspx Keys that reapered all the time [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\Folders]"C:\\Program Files\\BOINC\\"="1"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\Folders]"C:\\Documents and Settings\\USER\\Start Menu\\Programs\\DAMN NFO Viewer\\"=""[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\Folders]"C:\\WINDOWS\\winsxs\\x86_Microsoft.VC80.ATL_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_8.0.50727.163_x-ww_c8be176f\\"="" OS: Win XP PS2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Andavari Posted May 5, 2007 Moderators Share Posted May 5, 2007 Hey, i hae these recuring file extensions such as google earth , avm avi, ect ect. i have treid to dlete these manually through reg edit bt it wouldnt allow me to. How to reset the registry permissions: Click Start, Run, type in: regedit, and then click OK. In Registry Editor locate the registry key that won't delete, right click it, and select Permissions... Under Group or user names click Administrators. Under Permissions for Administrators, the Allow option must be for ticked for these permissions:* Full Control * Read Click Apply, and then click OK.Do this for each registry issue that keeps reappearing in CCleaner.

Moderators Andavari Posted May 5, 2007 Moderators Share Posted May 5, 2007 In order to change them you'll probably have to be logged in on your computer as the Administrator, or your user profile will have to be a part of the Administrators.
