Windows Forum / Windows XP / Performance and Maintainance / May 2008A Few Corrupt Registry Keys
I have a few (maybe 4) corrupt keys in my Windows Registry. At least 2 of them are in HKLM. Any attempt to search the registry with REGEDIT results in my computer rebooting, if the search string is not found before a corrupt key is encountered. Any attempt at exporting the registry branch with the corrupt key results in my computer re-booting. To repeat: I cannot export to a REG file. I cannot search the registry. This problem is NOT new. I have had it for quite a while. It is a PAIN. Can anyone help? Thanks. > I have a few (maybe 4) corrupt keys in my Windows Registry. At least 2 of > them are in HKLM.

How do you know you have corrupt Registry key? When did the problem start? Did you have a malware infestation about the time the problem started? Have you been using a Registry Cleaner?
