So you have the D5 source code, but you are not goint to touch it at all? In that case THIS is not the right group for your question. You could then ask this registry related question in some general windows\applications group. And also contact the original sofware developer who could maybe fix the problem. IF you are going to try to fix it, you first have to start checking to which registry hives does the app read and write. Then check and see what was actually written, and at which phase. Check if the problem has something to do with (Vista/Win7) strict UAC control. If it was, maybe you have to use some other registry hives instead, that have less restrictions and safety control. If these do not bring the answer, then, well.. just continue scratching your head. This is part of the usual, daily software developer burden. Yet if you decided that you not going to touch the code, then you are lucky as that bug beast will not bite you this time at all.<g> SP
