In Windows 2000 and Windows XP there is limited access to some registry hives from inside the regedit.exe., even for
administrator accounts. This is a safeguard to prevent you from destroying your operating system. The following steps allow
you access to these registry hives. In Windows XP you can use the normal regedit.exe for this task.
1. Run the program
regedt32.exe

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
.
2. Ensure the top most hive (
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
) is selected, then open the
Edit - Permissions
menu.
