Katrhyn I did not folowed the whole thread... Is it only you HKEY_CURRENT_USER, giving you this problem? If so, you could reset security on that. If you have windows XP Regedit and regedt32 are the same program. There was only a difference in previous windows versions. Open regedt32 Rightclick on HKEY_CURRENT_USER (Windows XP) Or Select HKEY_CURRENT_USER and click security in the menubar (previous windows). Select permissions Verify if the administrators group is in there. Check if Allow READ and FULL Control are selected. Verify if your current user is in there Check if Allow READ and FULL Control are selected. Verify if your RESTRICTED user is in there Check if Allow READ are selected. Verify if your SYSTEM user is in there Check if Allow READ and FULL Control are selected. Click ADVANCED Select Reset permissions on all child objects.... If you are not able to make these changes you probably do not have administrator rights on your computer, or they have been removed.... This can also happen when you copy a USER.DAT file from another user.

But regedt32 doesn't find Ofoto anyplace, and when I drill down from HKEY_CURRENT_USER to Software, there is no Windows folder to drill down further.
