    You can easily run RegOwnershipEx with SYSTEM rights (by PsExec from Sysinternals):
    Code:
    PsExec.exe" -hsid RegOwnershipEx

    Nice tool. GUI makes it convenient to take ownership. :)

    Maybe i wasn't clear enough, but when you run this tool as SYSTEM to take ownership of a Key you would just waste your time, as you can run regedit as System directly to access the keys without bothering with ownerships, same thing with TrustedInstaller ;)

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SECURITY for example, but really there is no point in trying to fix it, running RegEdit as System is far easier, but you could add this functionality into your tool to run RegEdit with SYSTEM privileges, though like anything this is only for advanced users, you can completely destroy your install this way ~.~

    Can you please help me with RunAsSystem utility? installed it as admin on win 8 enterprise x64. Got the right click menu, but when I right click on any .exe or .cmd and choose "run as system" nothing happens. No program/batch launches.
    I downloaded from sourceforge the latest version.
    Thanks

    AFAK, tested and analysed there is no real way to change background with an image. only solid color.
    I'm pretty sure about this as, oems only can skip the whole login screen (bootlogo -> boom metro)
