    Hi neha..

    1) Regedit.exe
    OR
    2) %Systemroot%\Regedit.exe


    possibility might be your system administrator have disabled it

    check Group policy
    Start>Run>gpedit.msc>User Configuration>Administrative Templates>System>Prevent access to registry tools

    Otherwise
    I think this is symptom of virus

    Try this Malicious Software Removal Tool from the Microsoft Download Center.

    OR

    Try this Remove Restrictions Tool (RRT)

    Your system is virus prone, try to open registry from cmd or directly going to the system32 folder(c:/windows/system32).
