Ok, here's the deal: My roommate used my laptop and started fiddling with the registry. He mostly knows what he's doing... He was testing out a reg "hack" that disables the use of certain programs on a given user profile. He was stupid enough to try it on his own. So what he ended up doing is disabling access to ALL programs but the one he tried to disable. Meaning, Winamp is the only program that can be opened. I know where this key is located, so what i'm wondering is if i can remotely access his accounts reg from the admin account.
I tried opening up the reg through the admin account but that key and subkey is not there. He used this website to get his info:

What he tried to do was Restrict Applications Users Can Run.
He made a backup before hand but windows won't let him run the reg file.
Quite a perdicament...
