Expandable String Value (WXP)

[Fastway]

I have admin rights on my home net (winxp pro). Some were along the way I lost the ability to create Expandable String Value and another reg string, when using regedit.exe.. My backup admin account can create the string and the other accounts on the computer can also. How can I restore this action without rebuilding my account.

Is the option greyed out when you right-click in the right hand side ?

Not quite the newbie I used to be, but still prone to the odd mistake :D

Fixed !!!!!!!!!! Some moron did a search for regedit.exe and then made a shortcut to his desktop. Well if that moron duel boots with windows 2k and win xp. The windows 2k regedit.exe doesn't do everything that win xp regedit does. So what I (the moron) am telling you is, watch your shortcuts!!

Thank you all sorry for wasting yor time
