Default Re: Deleting items via control panel

Unfortunately when I run regedit the regedit box comes up then disappears.
It does not stay open so I cannot follow the instructions - is there another
way or is there a way to keep the regedit open?

Thanks for your help

You don't need to have the registry editor open when you are merging
Kelly's .reg files or running her .vbs scripts. If you do Run>regedit
[enter] and nothing happens, then you have more issues on this computer
than have been addressed in any of your posts.

Make sure your computer is 100% virus/malware-free:

If you are having difficulties following instructions from Kelly's or my
sites, consider taking the computer to a professional computer repair
shop (not your local version of BigStoreUSA) for diagnosis/fixing.
There is no shame in doing this; we all have our areas of expertise.

As Malke said you don't need regedit running to use the regedit. That
there is a problem with regedit, though, suggests some sort of malware.
Look at the link Malke gave for instructions on cleaning the system.
