Registry Editing has Been disabled by your administrator

I log into my computer as administrator, and when I try to
run regedit, it gives me the error "Registry Editing has
Been disabled by your administrator". I have never made
any changes to the local policy prior to this. I set it
back to default, and still cant get in. I have never even
opened up the registry on this machine, so I don't know
how long ago this problem started.
Any suggestions would be gratly appreciated. I could find
nothing in the microsoft support about it.

Use the Group policy editor
%windir%\system32\gpedit.msc
User Config\Admin Templates\System\Prevent Access To registry Editing Tools=
"Not Configured"
