Problem with Vista X64

[rOuLdpH]

I was haveing issues with moving folders from my downloads folder to a start menu folder i made, it was telling me i needed permission. so i changed a few things.

first i went to my C: drive and tryed to change permissions for my user and might have done it accidently for system, i might have even removed permissions from these somehow.

Then when that did'nt work i thought i could change it as admin, so i had to log in as admin. and created this in my registry: (this did not work)

"reg add "hklm\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon\specialaccounts\userlist" /v Administrator /t REG_DWORD /d 1"

I reset my computer and now everything is screwed up, I get Error "The parameter is incorrect" when i try to run Regedit.exe and my C: drive is telling me "access Denied"
Also every 5 Min I get "Microsoft feeds Synchronization has stopped working"


I was thinking about just reformating and starting over, but windows wont even let me put files on a USB device so i can save pictures and stuff.

The parameter is incorrect.

I'd attach the drive to a working computer, using a USB converter cable, an external USB housing, or inserting it as a secondary hard drive in the other system. Then you can copy the files to another drive.

Note: When you attach the drive to another system, you may have to take ownership and change security permissions on the drive one more time to access the "User" folders to copy the data.

There may be a way to reset your permissions back to the default values, but I don't know what that is.

System restore to before you screwed it up.

Try booting into system repair mode (I think you press F8 during boot). If that works, you can use system restore to go back to a working state.
