That used to work fine, but at some point, it stopped working on some machines, and I never figured out what exactly the problem was,

I checked the registry, and on this machine it turned out that the value was not set at all. When I set it manually the calc key worked as it should be, starting Plus42.

This machine requires me to type in my password when I want to start regedit (company policy, but at least they made me local admin), maybe it failed silently to update the key? And BTW, there was no ShellExecute string value below 18 so I had to add that too.
