How to fix registry problems-Manually

GENERAL INFORMATION :
The Registry is a database used to store settings and options for the 32 bit versions of Microsoft Windows including Windows 95, 98, ME and NT/2000. It contains information and settings for all the hardware, software, users, and preferences of the PC. Whenever a user makes changes to a Control Panel settings, or File Associations, System Policies, or installed software, the changes are reflected and stored in the Registry. There are six main arms of Registry Editor, each containing a specific portion of the information stored in the Registry.
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
HKEY_USERS
HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG
HKEY_DYN_DATA

Each registry value is stored as one of five different data types:
REG_BINARY
REG_DWORD
REG_EXPAND_SZ
REG_MULTI_SZ
REG_SZ


HOW TO OPEN REGISTRY EDITOR :
  • Please go to “Start” and then click on “Run
  • Now in the Run command box, type “regedit“, and then click on “OK





    This option will open the Registry Editor, there you can delete and modify the Registry Entries..
    HOW TO DELETE / MODIFY REGISTRY ENTRY :
