Thanks. I created this key (it did not exist) and still get the message.

AdaGide looks for the path
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ada Core Technologies\GNAT"
and expects there a key named "ROOT" which is a string containing the
path where GNAT is installed (e.g. "C:\GNAT").
So if you create the ROOT-key there it should work. Uppercase/Lowercase
and spaces are significant.
Btw: How did you install GNAT? This keys should be created during
installation.

Thanks. I got a similar reply from Martin Carlisle to a private e-mail.
I guess what was throwing me off was the use of "key". In regedit, a key
is a folder in the left pane. In the right pane are values, which have a
name and content. So in this terminology, I need the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ada Core Technologies\GNAT
and a value named ROOT. I built that and it works fine.

I installed MinGW, which installs GNAT, in c:\MinGW\bin.
