Hi, i tried this command "reg.exe add "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\atapi\Controller0" /f /v EnumDevice1 /t REG_DWORD /d 0x00000001" in cmd but it said "Access Denied". How should i fix it now? Or what possibly is the problem?
I also tried to fix it through Regedit but actually i couldn't find "Controller0" in atapi. I don't know what this means. If anyone knows here plz help.
Thanks!

Hi,

You must run cmd with admin rights to execute the command. Open the Start menu and search for "cmd". Then right-click on it and choose Run as administrator.
