Hi Roger

=09
I found this post on http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=3D52309 . =09
I hope this will help you.

" Had this issue after joining my machine to my domain and migrating my =
local account to my domain account. Uninstalled/re-install
dropbox and recieved the same "Can't access registry" error, followed by =
link to a guild on clearing the Read-only attribute for
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Protect\CREDHIST. This was unsuccessful.

I ended up finding that the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Dropbox key and =
sub-keys could not be deleted. To delete them, I used
psexec.exe from PSTools to launch a command prompt under the SYSTEM =
account:

psexec -s -i \\127.0.0.1 regedit

>From the SYSTEM account regedit, I located the Dropbox key and deleted =
it (it will be under HKEY_Users\one of the long number SID
keys; HCKU is relative to the currently logged in user). If you have any =
trouble deleting it, you may have to explicitly grant the
SYSTEM account full-control over it and subkeys; just right-click on it =
and go to 'Permissions'.

Alternatively, I suppose that you could also re-create your local user =
profile to fix this. Also too, your security software could
be blocking access to that key; disable anything security related and =
see whether that key is deletable."

Well, it appears I am not alone in having recent problems with Dropbox, =
used for my occasional VLF grabber, according to posts on
the Dropbox forum.

I have tried EVERYTHING suggested by experts here and on the Dropbox =
forum to overcome the "unable to access vital registry
information" box appearing when trying to load it. Versions from 0. =
7.110 through to 1.3.9 have been tried, unsuccessfully, and I
have cleared registries, deleted cache files, even deleted my Windows =
log-on password for a time (apparently this fixed it for
someone) and deleted and reinstalled the Dropbox software, in various =
revisions, more times than I can recall in the past few days.=20

Now I have given up unless someone can help with a fix that is certain =
to work.

As I am not a PC or software expert this has really stumped me. It is a =
pity as Dropbox was so useful. So, no more occasional VLF
grabber from here until I find the fix or an alternative that is less =
problematic.
