I have a pc at home with 4 users. we are all classified as sys admin. I
entered regedit in the run program and got a message " regedit was disabled
by sys admin"

I know nothing about this but how do I reactivate it

thanks, Ken

Hi Ken,

This should re-enable regedit, but the cause may be a virus infection.
So I would suggest doing a virus with up to date virus software.
