+# Fix WPA Registry
+
+- In some cases, the system may have corrupt WPA registry keys at `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\WPA` which can cause `sppsvc` to not work and activation to fail, it can also cause high CPU usage in `sppsvc` service.
+- If you are not sure whether you need to do it or not, you can get help from [here](troubleshoot.md).
+- This registry key is protected by the kernel and cannot be deleted normally. That is why we need to follow some more steps below to clear it.
+

+
+## Steps To Fix WPA Registry
+
+- Download https://github.com/asdcorp/rearm/archive/refs/heads/principalis.zip
+- Extract this zip file.
+- Copy `rearm.cmd` file to the root of the C drive, like `C:\rearm.cmd`
+- Open the command prompt as administrator and enter the below command
+ `Shutdown /f /r /o /t 0`
+- After the system restarts, select Troubleshoot > Advanced Options > Command Prompt.
+- Enter the following command
+ `C:\rearm.cmd`
+- If it says the command is not recognized, enter
+ `bcdedit | find "osdevice"`
+- It will show you the OS drive letter. Use that drive letter in the command, for example,
+ `E:\rearm.cmd`
+- Wait for it to finish. When it's finished, you will be able to type in the command prompt, If not then wait.
+- Once done, exit and then normally boot into Windows.
+- If it doesn't help, you can [connect with us](troubleshoot.md) for help.
