Anyone knows how to access both ntuser.dat / usrclass.dat (windows 2000 server) file using VB?
It's in protected mode, and I have an invalid entry in the registry, which I wasn't able to remove it with many registry reader out there, so I wanna try diving into it myself.....if can.
Thanks

Properly not a vise idea to edit the files yourself. Don't you have a backup of those files....I think windows creates a backup automatically.
Have you tried using the Policy Editor??
I dont think Policy Editor would allow me to erase the error key.....
I have a subkey with this name \hlUnitAliases
The \ is causing the problem here.

Is it a registry key??
Maybe a sample of the tree structure would be better for understanding this problem.

Log on as a different user, so the files won't be open. Then unlock them in the normal way, and using a hex editor, find the key name. Bear in mind that since it's NT it'll most likely be in Unicode, so it'll be something like:
"H\0e\0l\0l\0o\0 \0W\0o\0r\0l\0d\0" :eek:
