Re: Trouble with registry key HKCR\.dvr-ms.

For what it's worth; what you see in HKCR is a symbolic link to;
HKLM\Software\Classes and HKCU\Software\Classes

The entries in HKLM are global to all users of the computer. What you see in
HKCU allows for unique customization of file type associations in the user's
profile. Entries in HKCU take precedence in the event of a duplication.
