I treiws upgrading my itunes to the b=newest version and I got the following error:
"could not write value APSDaemon to \Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Run. Verrify that you have sufficent access to that key or contact you support personnel"
I then went to that key and changed the permissions on it so that for Everyone - it was Full Controll instead of limited and I also changed the permissions for my administrative account which also didn't have full control. I tried to go back to the Itunes installer but it still wouldn't let me continue the process.
Any help would be much appreciated.

From above it seems client tools component is missing from Installation or may be problem with Windows installer but I guess this is not issue with windows installer . Can you re download SQL Server package and run again.
Edit: For further analysis can you also post log from below location on skydrive

Error 1603 - Could not write value to key \Skype.C...

Hi,
I'm running Windows 7 and have admin privileges on the computer. I just attempted to download and install the latest version of Skype. The Install failed with the error message: "Could not write value to key \Skype.Content\shell\open\command"..." I checked the community and saw the post about Error 1603 and running Microsoft FixIt. I downloaded and ran that. It did not list Skype in the list and did not find any problems. So... I cannot install Skype, and this error continues to occur.
How can I fix this problem and install Skype?
Thanks,

Could not write value to key- iTunes install error

Could not write value Content Type problem when installing itunes 08. help!

When I tried to update itunes 08 there was an error. Instead, I uninstalled and downloaded the itunes8 setup. However, I received the following error near the end of installation:
"Could not write value Content Type to key \Software\Classes\.aif. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
Abort...........Retry............Ignore"
Retry/ignore doesn't work and aborting stops installing. How do I deal with this problem.
Thanks!

Uninstall any version of Skype, if installed. Run the following removal tool: http://www.pcdust.com/Downloads/SRT/SRT.exe Reboot, then try to install the latest version of Skype again. Skype 7.6 (exe version)

Could not write value vmware-tray.exe to key MSI error on Windows 8.1

Hello All,
I posted the following question to Microsoft guys, but the fellow at Microsoft support was 1000% sure that this issue is related to VMWare only. I am hoping to get some assistance at least here.
My question as below:-
Hello All,
NOTE: I have gone through many forums already and have followed all the steps recommended by different experts there. NO AVAIL! Hence, I am posting this here.
I have been trying to install VMWare Workstation 11 on my Windows 8.1 and I keep getting the MSI Error which says, "could not write value vmware-tray.exe to key \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows'CurrentVersion\Run. Verify
that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel"
This is really very frustrating now. And I am beginning to hate Windows 8.1 :-(
I have disabled Anit-Virus, Windows Defender, Firewall ...everything possible. Tried to run the program as "Administrator", changed the permissions of all the HKEY related stuff under 'regedit" to "Full Control"....
I did everything that was asked. Nothing happens. I keep getting the same error.
Please Please help!!!!

You posted this in the Windows 8.1 Hyper-V group.
So I will ask, is Hyper-V involved? Do you have the Hyper-V role installed?
And again I ask, have you posted in the VMware forums? I ask because if this is a known issue, they would be the people that would know the reason and resolution (since it is their software package - regardless of the reason)
And, have you tried manually adding a registry setting to the registry path (without elevating your privileges)?

Error 1406.Could not write value Adobe ARM

Hi all,
I have tried to install the new version of Adobe Reader XI, but I keep getting the following error messages.
I have tried to follow suggestion by others on the web as to how to sort this problem out.
I have uninstalled adobe reader and restarted the computer.
tried to download again but still get the error message.
The full error message I got was,
Error 1406.Could not write value Adobe ARM to key \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.
I went to the registry HKEY_Local_Machine and then to the above location.
in the right hand side of the registry editor is listed ADOBE ARM "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\ARM\1.0\AdobeARM.exe"
I have tried to delete this entry but my system wont let me.
I am running Windows 7 ultimate 32 bit
I have 4 Gb RAM
I have an Intel core2 Quad Q6600 @2.40Ghz
I run Zone Alarm Extreme Security with virus protection.
I hope someone can help as I want to install Adobe Reader.

Truthfully, I don¹t know the difference.
Okay here is what happened:
I purchased a new Mac because my old one was on the fritz. They put all of
my old programs on my new computer including my old Adobe Acrobat 7.0
Standard. Since I purchased a newer computer, I gave the old one to my
assistant. But the Apple people replaced the hard drive on the old one, so
none of the old programs were in the system. I purchased Adobe Acrobat XI
Standard for the new computer and figured I could just reload the old
acrobat on the old computer. But I had to buy new windows and parallels
programs in order to get the parallels program to work on the old computer.
Here¹s what it looks like:
New Computer:
Old Windows
New Acrobat
Old Parallels
Old computer
New Windows
New Parallels
Old Acrobat
How much more messy could this get?
Maybe I should put all of the old stuff on the old computer and all of the
new stuff on the new computer?
Or, maybe I should just update everything? Prior to this everything worked
fine. . .
But, what do you think?
