    Find not scanning in Registry...event error


    This is the event error after attempting to do a regular 'FIND' within the Registry. Before the Fall upgrade installed via .iso on 11/20/2015 this Find worked.
    The Nirsoft Registry Scan will scan and find. I did not attempt to link to the registry from that Nirsoft tool
    The last software installed was a Nirsoft My Event Viewer as a portable app 11/21/15.It had errors via ntoskrnl.exe when executed. Microsoft apps were updated automatically 11/21/15(Photos, Messaging)
    These are the only changes since the fall upgrade Win10-1511
    Would this be corrected by a sfc /scannow?

    Nope, quite a lot of people are getting it. Must wait for a fix from MS as there isn't a workaround afaik. See here for example.

    Thank you for those links.
    I didn't do a search on this forum before posting my question

    All was going so well with the first Win10 version but I must admit I was prepared for glitches with this fall update. Overall it appeared that my system came through unscathed until I wanted to check that url used for checking metadata in the registry.
    Now I have to find where the 'Feedback' place is located.

    Reporting back with the results of a sfc /scannow to this desktop with the no response & crash with Find in Regedit.exe
    My laptop displayed it would do Find. The laptop had been updated to Win10 1511 via the Windows Update.
    I had downloaded an .iso Nov.13 for the desktop (original Win 10 installed Aug 8) but waited to see if an Update notice would arrive. It didn't so I used the .iso to install the Win10 1511 on the desktop.

    The scan displayed that opencl.dll was corrected but there were many 'Duplicate ownership for directory' in the cbs.log
    There was no mention of the comctl32.dll in the cbs.log which was in the event viewer originally.
    Rebooted, repeated the scan and no errors were reported.

    Find now works in the regedit.
