How do I stop Windows Registry Editor from reverting at startup?
February 6th, 2010 | by admin |about 5 days ago i changed a few keys in the registry using registry editor, and when i rebooted, the changes were reverted and the registry restored itself. i am not reverting the changes myself by pressing F8 at startup or anything like that. how do i stop regedit from automatically restoring? please help!
@S.H.Rooms
that answer was annoyingly simple, and i should definitely have thought of that before posting such a stupid question. thanks!
just to let you know, im trying to modify the registry in a couple fields (too lazy to post them all) so that my pirated copy of windows xp home will be activated. the .reg file came from my friend in college who claims that a bunch of students and teachers use it at his university to learn how to work with windows xp.
Perhaps posting the registry entry would help
If all else fails, create a registry patch file (.reg) , place the file in your ‘Startup’ folder, so that the changes will take effect every time windows starts, and you won’t be forced to going into regedit every time to modify.
