WHAT IS SOLUTION OF "REGISTRY EDITING HAS BEEN DISABLED BY YOUR ADMINISTRATOR"

Have you ever encountered the error, i.e. “Registry editing has been disabled by your administrator” on Windows XP or any other Windows NT Operating system, this may help you perfectly.

I have encountered the above error while patching registry. Even regedit command was not worked for me.

Here is a simple solution which can work for you.

First Method  For Windows XP :


Just Click on “Start >> Run” or press “[window key + R ]“ and type or paste following command exactly as given below. An hit ENTER from keyboard or click ok.

 REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableRegistryTools /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f 

Second Method For Windows XP :

Using the Group Policy Editor (Windows XP Professional only)

Just Click on Start, Run and type gpedit.msc and press ENTER

Go to the following location:

User Configuration | Administrative Templates | System

Double-click Disable registry editing tools and set it to Not Configured

Exit the Group Policy Editor

Note: If the setting already reads Not Configured, set it to Enabled, and click Apply. Then revert it back to Not Configured. This ensures that the DisableRegistryTools registry value is removed successfully.

Method For Windows Vista and Windows 7:

In the second method you can enable your registry by simply using FixWin small utility. It is less than 1 MB in size.
