Error While Loading Hive
« on: May 23, 2014, 05:09:59 pm »
I exported my HKEY Current User key. To test it so I'd know if I could access it when I upgrade (again) to Windows 8.1 I attempted to load it by selecting  HKEY Local Machine, opening the file menu and clicking "Load Hive". When it asks for a name to give it I get the "error while loading hive" message.

You can load the file if it is already in use :-)

So no way to load a hive while in Windows even after a reinstall? This is why I gave up on modding. I suck at this stuff. :)8
