Registry Access
in [VB.NET]

From: Charles A. Lackman on 4 May 2010 16:00 Hello, I created an App that writes small amounts of data to the registry. This works in Windows XP with no problem, however, Windows 7 gives the following error: "Requested registry access is not allowed". I am not sure how to work around this. I am using VS 2005. Code examples would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Chuck

Even within XP, you could experience issues if you try writing outside of there. Where are you trying to write? -- Mike

You should look up information using Bing or Google on how to deal with virtualization. <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa965884(VS.85).aspx>
