I took the hard drive out and with an interface was able to access it via another desktop pc which I was able to navigate through it content in the hope I could load the external drive registry, following some online guides I was instructed to navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and then load hive, but I’m not sure which file to search under from these options:
-SAM represents the Sam hive.
-SECURITY represents the Security hive.
-SOFTWARE represents the Software hive.
-SYSTEM represents the System hive
I get to the point where I select Load hive and a dialogue box opens asking for Key name” whatever that is?, do I just type the full destination in this box?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Shell=????.exe.
