Registry Permission Tool is a freeware tool to enable and disable Registry editing on Windows systems. The Windows Registry contains a key which, when set, prohibits the user from modifying the Registry with RegEdit. If the key is set, you'll see a message saying "Registry editing has been disabled by your administrator".
Registry Permission Tool ("rpt.exe") will reset this flag, so you can edit your Registry. This is useful because many common computer viruses, such as W32/Gibe and W32/Swen, modify your Registry, then set the flag to prevent you from undoing the damage. Commercial antivirus tools will remove the virus, but they cannot restore the Registry because they have no way to know what the original Registry settings were. Registry Permission Tool can be used to Lock or unlock Registry editing, making manual cleanup after a virus Infection much easier.
