Im the only user on my laptop and im left clicking and selecting run administrator so im not for sure what do to.

DayzForumer 284 Posted December 1, 2013 Exactly. Just run Regedit as an administrator. And why would you need to change your cd key... Are you a hacker? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mayuyu 411 Posted December 1, 2013 i bought a new one off the interweb Good luck having that one work for long.Export your current CD key to the desktop, edit it with notepad, and just replace a few lines (such as the key numbers) of the registry text and just double click it to switch cd keys.
