I started playing around in the Windows Registry on Windows 98 and it was a time when registry editing was much easier. Sure it didn't have the robustness of an XP or Vista registry, but there also wasn't all the hassle of permissions everywhere. With the onset of this permission madness the steps it takes to delete a key can be daunting. Take ownership, replace permissions, take ownership and replace permissions of newly appearing subfolders one by one... It's a pain. The solution:
Registrar Registry Manager! http://www.resplendence.com/, there is a lite version that can be downloaded for free.
Permissions don't matter anymore! This way you can still edit the registry as if you're the administrator of the system, and I mean real administrator (like root), not just wimpy Windows cut-down version of the administrator.
Enjoy,
