My first Windows 7 bug ! Heres the solution

Problem I went to install my bluetooth adapter on my notebook. Downloaded the Vista drivers and went to install. About half way through the install I got a error message telling me that my program didn't install correctly. I tried it several times with the same results. I eventually gave up. Later, I went to install Java, on a different computer that has Windows 7 installed. I got the same error and never got it installed. Both times I got a message from Windows 7 new “solution center” interface (which seems to be a lot more helpful than any other version of Windows that Ive used). The solution given was this…. I followed the directions on both of my computers and kept getting an error message (not the error listed in the solution). I gave up on both of those installs for a day or so. Today I decided that since the direction were just deleting a registry key, I opened regedit and deleted the key’s manually. Solution Open regedit type regedit in the start menu Right click regedit Click “run as administrator" Once regedit is open, click on the following registry items to get to where you want to go. On the left window double click on these (all in the same tree) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SOFTWARE Microsoft SQMClient Windows and lastly DisabledSessions That last item (DisabledSessions) is what you want to delete. Just right click on that item and delete. If you look, you will see that what you just did is the same thing Microsoft’s Solution center message is saying to do but you just did it manually. After I went through and did that to both computers, the programs I was trying to install worked with no problems. This registry key has something to do with Microsoft’s beta feedback and will most likely not be there when Windows 7 ships.
