Could anyone please help me find the registry key locations for the PC username, and the PC hostname on Windows Vista? I could NOT find anything on Vista. Thanks so much in advance.

Just to be clear, it's not one of those usual things. I got Win 7 Home Premium. CMD, Task Manager, all exe files and GPEdit works fine. Everything works fine actually - exept regedit just does not respond. I have Nod32 and my PC is virus / malware free. All I want is just access to registry...

Hey everyone, I use Windows mainly as gaming machine. Therefore, my deep technical knowledge is mostly hypothetical and most often imaginary. Yet I am looking for something that may turn out as extremly complicated to handle, but maybe it'll work. So, what I do want, I want to group my two hard...
