Make sure you run it as an administrator, or it'll fuck up. Also, where are you trying to run this, is it a home PC or a school / work PC?

It sounds like malware. I'd recommend booting into safe mode with networking and running a scan on malwarebytes.
Speccy logs would be nice, but not necessary.

Do a system restore to when you were last able to use regedit. More often than not a simple system restore will stop malware from my experience. Then install something like Malwarebytes and run a scan.
