Did you try right clicking on it and going into permissions?

 

How about restarting in Safe Mode and then accessing it?

Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] WAY OT: Registry Repair

 

Hi,

 

noticed today that 

 

    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run 

 

no longer opens (while logged on as the workstation's admin). I can export
the parent key - which will contain everything EXCEPT the "run" key. But,
then I can neither delete or rename the "run" key. Renaming/deleting the
parent will appear to work at first - until it reaches the Run "subkey" -
then it will again report that it cannot access that key.

 

So - I am suspecting that the Run key is corrupt. It can't be read, edited,
deleted or renamed.  I looked at some "registry repair" tools, but they all
seem to be Registry Optimizing tools in disguise that fix logical "problems"
in the registry (registries with too much or supposedly bad information).

 

Does anyone know of a tool (for XP) that will allow me to eliminate this bad
key from the registry "index" somehow so that I can just reimport the rest
of the parent key?

 

Best Regards
Andy Schmidt
