| Nov 5, 2017 at 1:16 | comment | added | jls | When booting with the USB, we can either do a fresh install or launch the Recovery Environment. I just assumed we couldn't access the GUI regedit in the RE, but we didn't actually try typing regedit.exe in the RE command prompt to see. I'll put that down as something to attempt; if that works, we'd be able to attempt several solutions we've researched. | |

I believe that it is possible to do this sort of thing if you boot Windows from a secondary device (e.g., a USB drive), but I’m unsure of the details. Can you run the regedit (GUI) program from your secondary boot? There are a couple of “Hive” commands in the “File” menu; I suspect that they’ll be useful.
