Vista x64 vs ERDNT

[Flatus Ohlfahrt]

Those of you who use ERDNT to automatically backup registry
files will understand how it bugs me not being able to get that
program to function under Vista x64. I get the following message
as each element of the registry is to be written:

RegCreateKeyEx:5 Access Denied

There are no related entries in the event files.

I've verified that the directories I use for archiving ERDNT
files and contents are not write protected.

Aside from this stumbling block, I've had a remarkably easy
install of this system on a low-budget platform. Matter of fact,
it was easier than any Windows OS that I've installed.

Any help in sorting this glitch out would be appreciated. I've
got a sneaky suspicion that it might be related to Live OneCare.

Re: Vista x64 vs ERDNT

Actually you should be addressing your problem to
www.aumha.org since the program is not a Microsoft program.

Also, according to the information on the web site at
http://www.aumha.org/free.htm the program predates Vista by
at least a year, 10/20/2005, and apparently is not
compatible with Vista.

Re: Vista x64 vs ERDNT

P.S.

Part of the information for ERDNT states: "Neither is for
Windows Vista! (AumHa.org is an official mirror site for
ERUNT and NTRegOpt. Click on his name above if you prefer to
download directly from the author’s Web page.)"

I would presume that really means it will not run on Vista.

Re: Vista x64 vs ERDNT

There's conflicting information:

http://www.larshederer.homepage.t-online.de/erunt/

Being the optimist, I always look for the silver lining.

I suppose I should take a hint from the site you cited and the
errors I received. Guess I'll have to find a work-around.
