Anywho I am trying to install Continuum 0.40 and it goes through the first part of install copying files to folder and when it gets to the end it gives me a error msg saying...

" Error Creating Regisrty Key Hkey_Local_Machines_..... Then says RegCraditKeyEx Code 5 Access Denied" I am going through some ss withdrawls. I appriciate any help you might be able to provide me with.

 

 

Thanks,

Jamie

$5 says it has to do with something involving permissions...

 

are you on an administrator account?

and would you also be so kind as to take a screenshot of the error, and upload it.

I am on a admin account all the accounts on my computer are adim accounts. Using XP. I took a screen shot but I do not know where to find it. I will search again.

Did it install the files? - Browse to C:\Program files\Continuum

If there is stuff there, try to start Continuum.exe... you might be able to start it.

You could try the following, but don't blame me if you break something:

 

1) Start -> Run -> "regedit"

2) Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversions\Uninstall

3) Right click on the key of step 2 -> Click on Permissions...

4) Under Group or user names: select "Administrators"

5) Make sure allow is checked for Full Control and Read

6) Repeat Step 4 and 5 for the "SYSTEM" user

7) Press the Advanced button

Select the check box "Replace permission entries on all child objects with entries shown here that apply to child objects"

9) Press OK on both screens. Close the Registery editor

 

This might not work if you are using Windows XP Home edition. (however, if I recall correctly this is solved by booting into safe mode)

Or:

 

Try uninstalling, and run a registry cleaner. After that, do a fresh install from here. Also, make sure you install it under a user with administrator rights.
