How to modify registry key control?

[riggsj]

Problem is only administrator can install/run this
software correctly. In order to fix so all users can run
the program, vendor says to give the EVERYONE
group the following rights:

MODIFY for c:\documents and settings\all users\application
data\broderbund software

MODIFY for c:\program files\broderbund\calendar creator

FULL CONTROL for the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL>MACHINE\Software\Broderbund Software\Print

How do I do the last part - the registry change?

thanks ... riggsj

Hi there

On Windows 2000, you need to use Regedt32.exe (note, no 'i'). Select the
key and then use the security menu to change the permissions.

On Windows XP, the regular RegEdit has been enhanced to include this
functionality.

I must say that requiring you to do this is a failing on your software
vendor's part. They really need to fix their software.
