I keep getting this error when I try to install Visual C++ Express 2005 on my Vista Premium, admin account:
Could not open key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\{3C9CFE1E-389F-4118-9FAD-365385190329}\InprocServer32\7.0.3300.0. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
The same error (but obviously a different registry location) pops up when I try to install Vista Codec Package. As it is designed for Vista, I think it is something wrong with my computer. Also, I use Winamp, and even though I have all the file associations set to Winamp, all of them still open in Windows Media Player. When I go to Vista's Default Programs, I notice that all the boxes for Windows Media Player are checked and grayed out, meaning I can't remove the file associations. It used to be able to let me select which associations I wanted. (If this will help, I've also noticed that Windows Media Player does not play the video portion of files any more, reading only the audio portion; the files work in three other media players, so the files are intact--what's worse, WMP used to work with videos! Maybe something happened with the registry?)
I've tried everything I can. Anyone else have this problem?
