The other recommended steps before touching the registry are:
1) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all FP Temp Files
2) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all hidden *.web files
3) In Windows Explorer Find and delete the file CMDUI.PRF
4) Disable or Uninstall any FP Addins
5) Run a Repair / Reinstall on FP & IE
6) Install all Service Packs for your OS, IE, and MS Office
If you have deleted anything in your registry run a Repair / Reinstall on FP

|
| Someone is asking you to delete the registry entries for FrontPage.
|
| If you do not have experience working in the registry I would go back to
| whoever told you to do that and have them walk you through it just to be
| safe, but here are the steps:
|
| 1. Run regedit.exe
| 2. Browse under the HKEY_LOCAL MACHINE directory to the path you mentioned
| 3. Select the Folder and right click and choose Export and save the file
| somewhere safe (just in case)
| 4. Hit the Del key.
|
| Now that's out of the way, what type of lock-ups are you experiencing?
| Deleting the registry keys is a valid troubleshooting step, but it should be
| close to the LAST step to try.
