![]() ![]() ![]() I got the same kind of error messages as the one I got when I used the Reg command in cmd (see code block above). I started Regedit and tried importing the registry file. I was getting desperate so I decided to try the regular safe mode with GUI just to make sure I've tried all of them. So in layman's terms I don't have sound on my computer now after trying to import the registry file. RPC is already started and working, but I can't make Audio Endpoint start. It depends on Windows Audio Endpoint Builder, and RPC (Remote Procedure Call). The audio service is called Winodws Audio. I even used the non-graphical safe mode (command line). Some keys are open by the systemĪnd what's the natural thing to do if something is being used by a system or some process? You have to close it and try again, right? But how do you close a system and prevent it from using some files while you are performing maintenance or troubleshooting on? Right! You enter safe mode! In safe mode only the bare minimum of drivers and services and processes and whatever, is loaded. So here is the error message I mentioned above.Ĭannot import L:\regbackup. Long story short: What's causing this error and the audio service to stop? And how do I import to registry what has been exported from it once?Īlright, I took the time to try import the file through Regedit again while in normal Windows mode. So this got me thinking that the failed import might have just screwed up the registry somehow. I'm back in normal Windows mode now so the service should be really working now. am I not allowed to do that? I know audio is disabled in safe mode, but I'm not in safe mode now. Now is this caused by a failed registry import operation or by the fact that I started Windows in safe mode? I'm thinking it should not be persistent. And if I hover the cursor over it I see it says "the audio service is not running." Now if I look at the task bar I can see an x over the speaker. ![]() reg"Įrror accessing the registry? That doesn't tell me anything! What's the error code? What is the cause?. So I decided to reboot into safe mode with command line support. So for that reason it couldn't import everything. But then I got an error message saying something along the lines "not all keys were imported" or similar because it was "in use by the system" or similar. It took some time to import, I mean the file is like 480 MB or something. so I started Regedit and then went to File, Import, selected my Reg file, and then clicked Open. But how about the Reg files generated through the export option of Regedit?Īnyhow. And this is done through the import option in Regedit, right?ĭoes importing a Reg file through Regedit mean merging the information from the Reg file to what's already there, or does it overwrite everything with what's being imported? I know that opening small single Reg files with registry fixes prompts whether or not to merge it with the registry. Now I would like to go back to using that old version of the registry, in order to revert any changes made to the registry. ![]() So I saved the Reg file to disk drive L yesterday. Doing an export through Regedit (range: all) is the equivalent of making a backup of the Windows registry, right? ![]()
