ellow,

I have got a problem with installing my program on a users PC, when you are logged in as administrator there is no problem but when you don't have admin rights the following error occurs when running the program...
it's only when I click on my update form. In that form I have a datagrid using the dll of rustemsoft...
I tried to higher the trust of this dll and I gave it full trust but that didn't help.
I don't know how to solve it in an other way?
any sugestions??

thx koen

You're not permitted to write to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT in a limited user account, that appears to be an error in the dll, is there anyway to stop the registry access?

Click to expand...

I have already send an email to the constructor of the dll and asked if there was a bug in the dll but they say that I have to customize myWindows user account security levels...
but I gave the dll full trust but nothing changes.

thx for the reply
greets KD
 
I have tried all possibilities I could find on the net but nothing works...
Does somebody have an other idea?
 
Did you set correct right to your EXE ?
Did you locked the registry for the current user ?

If you locked it... it'll never be able to write something to the registry.
 
I don't think you will be able to work round this by assigning permissions to the DLL - you will have to make each user who needs the functionality of this DLL a local administrator! Fairly terrible practice in my opinion - can't see why a dll would need to modify / access these keys at runtime.
 
Weird solution indeed.

Request the source code ! :p

But... for real... if the source code is available... you could modify the "Registry" section.
But if it's not... you'll have to figure a way to get over this.
 
Hello:
I hava a question....
Who you modify the "Registry" section... is in .Net or in the snap or where???
can you send some link where i can fine more information about it?? i will appreciate it
