Doesn't matter if you are an administrator. Check the permissions
on the key itself.
Caution
[[Incorrectly editing the registry may severely damage your system.
Before making changes to the registry, you should back up any
valued data on your computer. ]]
Try this...
Reset the registry permissions
As soon as you have found the registry subkey that has the
incorrect permissions, update the permissions for that subkey.
To update the permissions of the registry subkey, follow these
steps: a. Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK
to start Registry Editor.
b. Locate and right-click the registry subkey:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Interface\{F7A533DB-676E-4cc2-9890-BD547A7CFD28}
and then click Permissions.
c. Under Group or user names, click Administrators.
d. Under Permissions for Administrators, make sure that the Allow
check box
for the following entries is selected:
• Full Control
• Read
e. Click Apply, and then click OK.
f. On the File menu, click Exit to quit Registry Editor.
Open the Registry Editor again and see if you can delete the key
now.
If not, try this...
Start | Run | Type: regedit | OK |
Navigate to >>>
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Interface\{F7A533DB-676E-4cc2-9890-BD547A7CFD28}
Right click the key in the left hand pane | Permissions... |
Advanced button | Owner tab | click the new owner and then click
OK.
[[You can take ownership of a registry key if you are logged on as
an administrator or if you have been specifically assigned the
permission to take ownership of the registry key by the current
owner. ]]
See permissions, registry in Registry Editor HELP.

Hi all,
I've got a problem on a machine here, trying to access a certain
key using Regedit I get an 'Access denied' error. The key is:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\Interface\{F7A533DB-676E-4CC2-9890-BD547A7CFD28}
I'm logged in as the local Administrator so it's not a rights
issue.
Any help much appreciated.
Dan
I didn't find the key on this machine but that's not unusual. Do
you have any problems accessing any of the other keys under
Interface? Do you know what program the key is related to? A
Google search came up empty. Possibly the program that installed
it is using the key? Have you tried Safe Mode?
Hi Terry,
thanks for the quick response. The problem becomes apparent when I
try to install AVG Anti-Virus software. I wonder if AVG created
that key on a previous install? It *is* now uninstalled though,
ready to be reinstalled. I have tried Safe Mode, I even repaired
the Windows XP installation today from a CD and it is still the
same.
Appreciate any more ideas!
Dan
