Any good utility for registry?

[bmill99]

I'm wondering is there's any good utility or how-to for veriftying regtweak.reg and find out if there's any error or not. cuz when i applied tweaks during runonceex on WinXP SP2, it display error message saying about some of entry cannot be merge.

[mazin]

I don't think there is, unless I'm wrong. You'd better verify'em yourself. Or, you post the wrong ones here, so you can get help.

[MCT]

yep.. no better of a checker then your own mind

regards

[bmill99]

k here's my regtweak.reg

I know it's long but it seem ok to me and it worked on sp1. I guess something is broken under sp2.

looks ok.. try not disabling any services..

explain your problem better too

[bmill99]

well error message doesnt say much. and here's screenshot.

EDIT: that's when i double click on reg files so i can test it out. I think it might have something to do with SP2's added security to protect registry but who know.

[MCT]

try removing all hex tweaks.. ive had this happen with different hex tweaks cuz they were messed up

my problem was caused by a bad tweak.. just recheck all tweaks
