Solved Windows 7 Pane Customizer will not function - Registry access denied

[MarkC0]

I'm running as an Administrator and never typically get these sorts of problems. Each time I go into the registry and set the permissions for it, the same error pops up with a new registry lines denying access. I've now set permissions for about 8-10 registry lines but still new ones are showing up. Obvious if there's dozens upon dozens this isn't a feasible solution.

There is no documentation for this program from what I can see so I'm stuck. Any help?

Hello Mark,

Did you right click on the program's shortcut and click on Run as administrator?

Thank you. That's gonna take some time but it'll do the trick!

I find it absolutely ridiculous that in this day and age, something as simple as what I've asked here requires this much documentation and this much time to get working appropriately. It speaks volumes as to the lack of intuition on the part of the Win7 dev teams. This should be integrated into the default OS and shouldn't take more than 30 seconds to complete.

Thank goodness for people like you, we'd all be sitting here with our thumbs in our asses still if it weren't for the efforts of the staff on forums like these.
