Board index » 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

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.
