Java Registry Permissions error?

Post by ramsundaram »

Hi:

I've setup a new machine, Windows 7 64-bit with Filebot, and Java8.

AMC works fine, except for an error at the beginning of every torrent processed:

Code: Select all

Oct 08, 2014 9:14:00 AM java.util.prefs.WindowsPreferences <init>
WARNING: Could not open/create prefs root node Software\JavaSoft\Prefs at root 0x80000002. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(...) returned error code 5.
Parameter: music = y
Parameter: subtitles = en
Parameter: artwork = y
Searching on the Internet indicates that this is likely due to Filebot not running as Administrator - not having access rights to Registry.

Any fixes other than allowing open access to the Registry?

Thanks,

Ram

It's just a warning. You can ignore it.

Otherwise I'm sure you'll get lucky with Google for this one:

If you find a way to fix it, please let me know. ;)

Thanks, RedNoah.

I created the empty keys in the Registry and the warnings stopped.

Thanks,

Ram
