I am not sure I understand part of this. Why did you delete all the other MTU folders other than Microstudio? I am presuming this was on the C:\ drive you did this? Did you delete the C:\MTU folders or the C:\ Program Files\Micro Technology Unlimited\ folders?

This is done from a file on the C:\ drive that isn't identified to us as being an MTU file. It contains your information and all of your registration codes that you have entered.

Your title for this post is Regedit failed, but you don't mention it in your post. What exactly did you do and what happened when you did it?
Let's wait before you try the System Restore as I am not convinced we have gone through everything we can try.
What other programs do you have installed on this computer?
