Be extremely careful when mucking about with a registry entry's security settings. RegEdt32 will let you change a whole branch if you're not watching what you're doing. You can render a machine inoperable in a heartbeat, i.e., you're reloading windows from scratch. On 5/12/05, Mihai Amarandei <mihai () xmcopartners com> wrote:
I guess what you can do is open regedit - The Windows Registry Editor. From there, for example, select HKEY_CURRENT_USER, right click on it and chek the Authorisations Option(Autorisations in the french version, don't ask :) ). From there you should be able to manage who and how has access to that key/field.

I would like to be able, for example, to allow user Alice to read/write only in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER hives and to read-only all the registry. Is that possible ? If yes, how can I configure this ? Any others tricks related to Windows XP registry security ? Thanks SC
