Registry permission error in Windows 7 64 bits
I have some registry problems in my recently installed windows 7 64 bits. When I try to add a 32 bits ODBC throw C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe (and running as Administrator) and It throws me a "Cannot Write to registry" error. If I enter into regedit as an administrator and if I go to any entry under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ODBC\ODBC.INI I get an Access Denied error. If I try to assign rights to that key, It says I don't have permission to change the permissins. Thanks, ArielAriel

Here's what it suggests To take ownership of a registry key Open Registry Editor. Click the key you want to take ownership of. On the Edit menu, click Permissions . Click Advanced , and then click the Owner tab. Under Change owner to , click the new owner, and then click OK . It worked as far as enabling me to grant full permission, or putting a check on user groups however i still can't delete this key for some reason HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{A1607060-5D4C-467a-B711-2B59A6F25957} http://www.cesabarre.com/
