Instructions
1. Open "My Computer" or "Computer." For
Windows XP, click "Start" and select "My Computer." Or, if
you're using the classic Start Menu, double-click the "My Computer"
icon located on the desktop. For Windows 7, click the Start Orb located in the
lower left corner. Select "Computer."
2. Double-click the "Local Disk (C:)" drive, then
double-click the "Windows" folder.
3. Scroll through the folder contents until you find the
"regedit" program execution file. The folder's contents are arranged in
alphabetical order.
4. Right-click on the "regedit" file and select
"Run as..." from the pop-up shortcut menu. This opens the "Run
As" dialog box.
5. Click "The following user" radio button.
6. Open the "User name" drop-down menu and select
the user account you would like to edit the HKEY_CURRENT_USER settings for.
(The selection is limited to administrator user accounts only. Unfortunately,
you cannot use the "Run as" command to open a program using a
limited-user account.)
7.Enter the selected account's password credentials in the
"Password" box. Click "OK" to launch the Registry Editor
using this alternate user account.
8.Perform your edits. To make changes to the registry that
will affect this user's profile settings, expand the
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER" subtree located in the left-side window panel.
Here, navigate to the folder (technically referred to as a "subkey")
that contains the value you would like to modify. In the right-side window panel,
right-click on the value you wish to change. A shortcut menu opens. Select the
type of modification you want to make. Select "Modify" from the
shortcut menu if you want to modify the settings' "Value data." Or
select "Modify Binary Data," "Delete" or "Rename"
from the shortcut menu.
9.Close the Registry Editor and you’ve done!
