HOW CAN I OPEN THE REGISTRY IN WINDOWS XP??

Question

when i click run and type regedit an error statement says "regedit is not a valid win32 application"

i have some bugs i need to remove as soon as possible but i cant open the registry :[

Answer 1

Try running it from safe mode without networking. If it still doesn't work, I recommend opening up a dos prompt, and a system file check to rebuild XP's structure and start repairs. Type command in run, then sfc/ scannow and let this run. Restart and if the regedit command still doesn't work... time for a restore :(. Good luck!

Answer 2

Try regedt32 in the run box, but it sounds like you may have a virus/malware that is affecting some of the programs. You might have to run this from safe mode.  

Answer 3

download the ccleaner.com
