mdilday Posted June 11, 2001 Share Posted June 11, 2001 When opening VW 9.0 I get an errro message, "Failed to write to required registery enteries. Error number: 5-Access Denied-you do not have permisssion to write to the required registery enteries." I originally installed as an upgrade,but is now installed as a "clean install".I have uninstalled the prievioius versions and removed enteries in the registery common to the later versions.I have recieved a new disk from Nemetschek and it functions the same. VW version 8 works without the error. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment

VW is trying to add registry entries so Windows will recognize .mcd files as being VW files, but is not allowed to do so as you don't have permission to change the system-wide setting. Once you do this, you should be able to log in as your normal self and run VectorWorks as normal. ------------------ Andrew Bell andrewb@nemetschek.net I am not an official spokesperson for NNA Quote Link to comment
