            where xxx is the basic language ID for the system; for example, 009 for English.
  • Grant READ access to the following registry keys on the remote computer: Using REGEDT32, grant the user account at least READ access to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Perflib and all sub keys of that key.
