HKCR and Shim Jim <rog_21[ at ]yahoo.com> 2/23/2006 7:41:52 PM I noticed the Shim uses HKCR in order to place the load behavior; however if a non-admin users tries to register the shim they do not have permissions to write to HKCR. Any clues on how to get around this?

Re: HKCR and Shim Jim <rog_21[ at ]yahoo.com> 2/23/2006 7:56:02 PM Well I may have solved it. In the registry file in the Shim I changed from HKLM to HKCU, I thought I may have to change the HKCR, but it seems that HKCR will write to HKCU first. Contact me if you have any shim install issues, I may have some insight.
