    Getting Sets back via the RegEdit (Anyone tried this?)


    Currently running RS5 build 17661. I have been using this method to get Sets back, but using Hibernate to ensure Sets are not lost via a reboot (which was happening on my PC).

    However today I saw on the Feedback Hub a Registry 'fix' as below. Anyone tried this???

    1) open Regedit. Navigate to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SEMgr

    2) verify subkey Private is empty, only a blank (default) value

    3) verify subkey Test is empty, only a blank (default) value

    4) in UI subkey, note there should be single DWORD value CardEmulationState

    5) open Task Manager & kill all Windows Explorer processes

    6) In regedit, DELETE CardEmulationState value entirely (not just the value of it, the entire entry)

    7) Recreate the (same) key from scratch: new DWORD (32bit) value, name it CardEmulationState, and set its value to 5. No copy/paste, type in entries by hand.

    8) Exit regedit.

    9) Perform Ctrl-Alt-Delete and restart by using the power icon in lower-right corner

    I got here and found: (Default) REG_SZ (Value not set)

    So, I stopped and closed Regedit!
