Whenever I try open ODBC I get this error .. unable to open key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC DATA SOURCES FOR READ.
This has never been a problem before.

Anyone else have this problem.. any help please I can't work on ASP.NET MAKER AT ALL NOW

Thanks

In Windows, search for ODBC Data Source (32 bit) and open it. Do you encounter the same problem? What is the exact error message? Also make sure that you logged in as an Administrator.

I can open ODBC fine directly. But when I do it via asp.net maker it gives the error exactly as I posted.
In a pop up warning msg. Also when run as Administrator.

In aspm can open the ODBC with the three dots.. but as soon as I try to select the database using arrow next to the three dots it pops up

If the current Windows user is not in the administrator group, you can right click and open ASP.NET Maker 2022 and select "run as administrator".
