Regedit Not Open From Run Command
Sep 10, 2015
When I bring up the run command (Win+R) and enter regedit or regedit.exe. It does not open.
If I enter C:Windowsregedit.exe, it opens.
All other exe files in the windows directory opens fine except for regedit.
Windows and System32 folders were missing in the environment path, so I added them and there is no difference.
I have 2 systems running Win10, one works and one does not
I have full ownership and permissions to the Windows folder.
One other strange thing is the Run box doesn't keep any history on the problem computer, but does on the other one.

So my mail app was not opening links. So I looked up how to reinstall the mail app. Got to this: [URL]....
I uninstalled the apps, then ran the powershell command: Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers| Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)AppXManifest.xml"} to reinstall the mail app.
A bunch of red errors appeared in the prompt and now my start menu, notifications, onedrive,... won't work.

Client of mine called me this morning concerned about waking up his computer and seeing a command prompt open with the following in it ...
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.10586]
© 2015 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:UsersNOTREALNAME>net use m: sclientstorage
System error 87 has occurred.
The parameter is incorrect.
C:UsersNOTREALNAME>copy /Y m:dinner.exe
The system cannot find the drive specified.Obviously I have not included the actually user account name. My client is a long-time subscriber to Norton, and I would imagine his system is as tight as Norton can make it.

I changed Command Prompt on my Taskbar so when I click on it, it opens as Administrator. That sets the default directory as C:WINDOWSsystem32 which I don't like, since any files I create that do not have a path specified will be created there.
I want it to open in my user directory.
When I look at the properties I see Start in: %homedrive%%homepath% which converts to C:Usersmyaccountname yet when I launch the Command Prompt it still goes to C:WINDOWSsystem32.

How do I restore these functions? sfc also does not work in Powershell but does work in CMD. Also, it does nothing.

I broke the front audio port, accidentally yanked on a wired connection and the audio is not working. So I am trying to remap the microphone port to be a headphone port. Using the instructions here : [URL] ...
Except when I restart my computer the regedit changes I made are reverted. I am just simply changing a binary value, Pin19, which my Realtek audio device connection for my mic, to be 20 00 00 00 which indicates headphone.
I tried giving permission to every username except CREATOR OWNER, which doesn't allow me to change. What can I do?
Realtek Audio ALC662 chipset
Software for this device doesn't allow for remapping, so Regedit is the hard way

In Windows 10 regedit freezes when trying to export a registry key. To fix this, open the print dialog (ctrl+p) first, then close it and you can export registry keys.
Original post: Whenever I try to export a registry key from regedit, when I click file->export it freezes. This only occurs in Windows 10, did Microsoft accidentally break regedit or something?

A few days ago I have found out the Regedit crashes on me while performing a search. Running w10 x64.
I have run sfc /scannow and it said there were no integrity violations.
PS - It even crashes if I hit the CANCEL button while searching.

I tried to disable the lock screen on windows 10 through regedit.
I went to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SOFTWARE Policies Microsoft Windows
but instead of creating a new folder PERSONAL i went to the right pane and created a new DWORD (NoLockScreen) and set value to 1.
Now when power up my laptop it goes into diagnose mode and I have to do a restore point before I can get in.
I tried doing a serach for DWORD and No Lock Screen in regedit but cannot find it.

I just bought a new laptop with an SSD and a 1TB harddrive - I wanted to change the default installation path from the SSD, to the harddrive and found this link to do it: [URL] .....
So I followed the instructions from the thread:
"Open regedit (Start > Run > "regedit"). Then find "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersion". Now look in the right pane. Change "ProgramFilesDir", "ProgramFilesPath", "ProgramW6432Dir" and "ProgramFilesDir (x86)". If your secondary drive letter is D:, then change them to "D:Program Files", "D:Program Files", "D:Program Files" and "D:Program Files (x86)", in that order that I just mentioned."
But now i can't install or uninstall programs, I can't open regedit to revert the changes, and the backup I made (also by following the thread) doesn't work! I can't even open up Task Manager... When i try using "run" and typing in "regedit", an error pops up saying: "Windows cannot find C:WINDOWS
egedit.exe. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." I cannot use "run" as an administrator either. How can i reverse what i did?

If I have say 10 programs up and am in the middle of things on each and I hit sleep then:
1.) The computer indeed goes to sleep i.e. the CPU Fan goes off.
2.) When I come back several hours later I always find that the CPU fan is on.
3.) When did the CPU Fan come back on? How do I set this time? This is the big question!
3.) I then use my mouse and the screen shows me the position on all 10 programs exactly as I left it.
Now the CPU fan coming back on after xxx minutes which I want to control means it rebooted some time after it went to sleep. On this machine there is a raid controller so the reboot process took about 5 minutes.
Other facts: If I hit sleep so the machine appears to turn off and the CPU fan stops and then put off the switch on the PSU then of course when I come back into the room in 8 hours or whatever I must turn the switch back on. I then hit the power button and wait 5 minutes while the raid controller and the CPU boot up and then I am back onto the 10 programs exactly where I left them.
So in the sleep command I want to set the time when it reboots to say 7 hours if I am going home to dinner and rest. If I am going to be away for an hour I want to set this time to say 1 hour. That way I can save having to hit sleep and then turn off the PSU switch to keep my CPU fan off all the time I am away.
To put it another way if I just hit sleep and leave for all I know it reboots after 5 minutes so electric saving is low!!

Tapping F8 or spacebar doesn't do anything ?
I want to boot to command prompt only. I need to rename my user folder, in an attempt to get it named correctly, after the clean upgrade decided to drop the last character, which now gives me a girls name..
Doing it within Windows gives me an Access Denied.. Doing it as a local account, gives me an Access Denied.
Was going to give it a shot outside the OS. and at the recovery prompt, using just the REN command.
Then booting back in, (ignoring the plethora of errors) mess around a little in the registry, have my Microsoft account sync itself back to the correct path, then go for another clean install.

In my upgrade of Win7 to Win10 (winver 1511 build 10586), the RUN command remembers its MRU. However, in a fresh install of Win10 (winver 10240), RUN does NOT remember its MRUs.
Importing the relevant registry key from the first into the second, does NOT solve the problem. Is there an effective way of getting Win10's RUN command to remember its MRUs ?

my Dell Latitude E6520 laptop, I can open command prompt (Normal and Admin), but can not close any of the CMD windows I open unless I go through the Task Manager and shut them down. I do not have that issue on my desktop, which is also running Windows 10 Pro. The laptop is the only Windows 10 device I've run across that has this issue. It is just incredibly aggrivating that I have to go through the Task Manager just to close the cmd windows

I have been unable to find a reference to describe all of the current commands supported by the Windows 10 Command Prompt. Is there someplace that this exists?
When trying to recover from a system crash the old commands to create a bootable hard drive to restore to are not there as far as I can tell, I found the DiskPart command and all of the supported commands for that on line but am struggling to understand what all is in the new Command Prompt.
