Windows Vista >> Can't delete registry key
I went to upgrade Nero 8 to the latest update and could not install so I
removed Nero 8 completely. However, there are still some keys that won't
delete in the reg. I tried Nero's Clean Tools but no luck. Updating the
software won't work because I get an error that it can't access a key in the
registry (InCD, which is not and does not install in Vista/Nero 8). I've
tried safe mode as well as 3 registry cleaners with no luck. What's the
secret to deleting these registry keys.
I'm using Vista Ultimate.
Thanks
Windows Vista1

Windows Vista >> Can't delete registry key
If you are absolutely sure the key(s) are not in use or needed, open regedit
and take ownership of the key(s):
Right click, Permissions, Advanced, Owner Tab (change Owner to You/Your
Account)--check box to "Replace owner on sub........", OK, back to
Permissions, give yourself/your account Full Control (click your
name/account, Edit Button, OK out of it), do whatever you want with the key.
