How edit registry of others users from my own?
Posted by JS on October 31st, 2005


If I log on as administrator then how do I edit the registry entries
of other users?

In the registry I can see lots of keys which are presumably my own.

It's based on Hives, when you log on and edit the Registry. The active
user Profile (Hive) is HKey_Current_User. The complete storage for
all Profiles is under the HKey_Users and is displayed by the SID or
Security Identifier string.
