Registry permissions troubles

[NewsBot]

IdentityReference refer = new NTAccount(Environment.UserDomainName,

*** Environment.UserName);

RegistryAccessRule full = new RegistryAccessRule(refer,

* * RegistryRights.FullControl, AccessControlType.Allow);

RegistrySecurity sec = new RegistrySecurity();

sec.AddAccessRule(full);

 

RegistryKey key = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(

*** @"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VSTAHostConfig");

key = key.CreateSubKey("TestApp",

*** RegistryKeyPermissionCheck.ReadWriteSubTree, sec);

// Validate args first.

key.SetValue("AppName", args[0],

*** RegistryValueKind.String);

key.SetValue("ProjectTemplateLocations", args[1],

*** RegistryValueKind.String);

// done!

 

the above code should add the keys necessary to register a VSTA application to prepare it to create project templates.* problem is, .NET is telling me it can't change the registry.

Are my security checks incorrect?* i'm on a corporate network, but i'm local admin on all machines in my domain, including of course my own.

 

any help?
