# 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.
