Subject: regtool load gives access denied

I want to back up and restore some of my registry settings.  I start a shell
with "Run as administrator", and regtool save seems to work fine for saving:

$ regtool save /HKCU/Software/SimonTatham/PuTTY/Sessions PuTTY.reg
$ 

However when I try to reload the saved settings, I get access denied:

$ regtool load /HKCU/Software/SimonTatham/PuTTY/Sessions PuTTY.reg
Error (5): Access is denied.

Does anyone know why this fails?  I'm puzzled by this since I'm running in an
admin shell.

Thanks,
Andrew
