WRITE PRIVILEGES
In device manager I click on com port settings then advanced and the message
says "you must have write privileges to change settings" below is the fix
that I did once before and it worked but...I had to restore my HD from a
clone and now the problem is back and the fix is not working. below is the
fix that Im trying but its not changing anything.
Click Start, Run, type Regedit and click OK to launch the Registry Editor.
If some keys at the left are already expanded, scroll to the top and
double-click My Computer, then close and restart the Registry Editor.
Double-click HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM, and CurrentControlSet. Cick Edit
and Find. Select the Keys and Data checkboxes and unselect the others.
Enter {4D36E96D-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} in the textbox and click Find
Next.
The first key found should be under the Class key. Double-click the key,
and you should see at least one numbered subkey (i.e., 0000, 0001, etc.).
Right-click the first numbered key and click Permissions Click Advanced.
Click Administrators and Edit, clear all the Deny checkboxes, then click OK,
OK and OK. Repeat for each of the numbered subkeys.
Press F3 to locate the next instance, which should be a data item under the
Enum\PCI key. Right-click the open key and click Permissions, then change
the settings as described above. Repeat this step if more that one modem is
installed to find other instances of the value, and change the permissions of
the key which contains it.
Note: in the last paragraph the fix says "locate the next instance, which
should be a data item under the Enum\PCI key" but there are no entries for
that key just (default) REG SZ and (value not set) any ideas?
