Hi,

I think you misunderstood me....  I already had a second partition that I only use for occasional testing; so its a very basic install of win 7 pro on my D: drive.  This is the registry I exported to test with.

My C: drive is my main Win 7 Pro install....this is the one I am having this issue with.

When I imported the entire registry from my "clean" D: install, it fixed the issue with the Advanced Sharing Button.  It was when I rebooted the PC and tried to get back into the C: drive install is when the anticipated registry hang happened.  I did the Repair Windows in an effort to do a system restore, but the Start-up Repair off the DVD, NOT a reinstall got me back into my C: drive, but the "Class Not Registered" error came back .

I can only conclude, as you have suggested, that some place in the registry holds the key/subkey that controls the action of the advanced sharing button.

Question is, how does one find the key ?


Thanks again for your help !!

Have you done a system file check on the system yet?

Hi,

Yes...SFC usually terminates around 18% but every so often it will run to completion.

The CBS.log file is mostly gibberish even as windows gibberish logs go.....

When SFC completes, it has made no difference.


There must be some simple registry item that is messed up.  The Windows File Sharing property sheet (as executed by the Advanced File Sharing Button) is not well documented.


Thanks again.

Yeah the trick is to just find what regkeys it needs.

I am not sure what the best way will be to trace that down.
