Please read following (original post last). Reposted here in 2K registry
from XP General. Can anyone in this forum help ???????

**************************

Thanks.....I was confused for a moment

I see and can set 'Permissions' but only in XP registry. This is not the
case in win2K registry (checked first hence confusion) I 've done as you
suggest in XP registry and deleted all references to "panda".

There appears to be no "permissions' in win2K registry, or none that I can
find. Can you advise how I can resolve same issue but within 2k ???

*****************

They have restrictive privileges. You'll need to Right Click on each
key, take Permissions - Add yourself and then Grant yourself Full
Privileges. In some cases you have to start at the lowest sub-key
level and perform the maintenance and then move upward through
the key tree.

In Windows 2000 one must use the regedt32.exe (and an
Administrators group account) for "Permissions" (registry ACLs).
In XP regedit.exe and regedt32.exe functions were combined into
regedit.exe. Hope that helps.
