ERROR: Registry editing has been disabled by your administrator

Hi,

On my corporation laptop, I have access to Windows registers blocked. So when I want to run Otii 3x, I get:

“2023-04-11T13:46:03.349Z [error:renderer] Error: Error while obtaining machine id: Error: Command failed: %windir%\System32\REG.exe QUERY HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography /v MachineGuid
ERROR: Registry editing has been disabled by your administrator.”

Why Otii 3 needs to change anything in registers? Otii 2 doesn’t do this and works fine.

Is there any way to run Otii 3 in such circumstances?

Best Regards,
Marcin.

Hi Marcin,

Welcome to the forum.
Otii 3 do not want to change anything in the registry, it only want to read.
Your network administrator apparently also have blocked reading in the registry.
We are looking into this.

Best regards,
