SOLVED
I was able to run regedit32.exe using my obscured "Secure" account. I then undid the registry tweak that got me stuck in the first place.
To get a prompt that includes a username and password field from within Windows 7 -- even in a Standard (non-Administrator) account follow these steps.
1. While holding down the Shift key, right-click the program you want to run.
2. Select "Run as a different user."
3. Type the username and password of the account.
Note: this does NOT work for disabled user accounts, like the built-in Administrator account.
This DOES work for hidden (but still enabled) user accounts.
Thanks everyone --
