Users Access to Registry

[Guest]

I have a small problem. I have a program that my users have to be able to
use that requires r/w to the registry. I have already gone in and given all
users r/w permissions for those keys. My problem is that when the program
performs certain operations, it also requires the ability to create new keys
temporarily in the registry and there I run into the problem. If you have
any ideas, I would love to hear them.

Thanks,

Troy W.

My first thought would be to replace that particular application with
an equivalent product from another vendor (preferably a direct
competitor of the maker of the crapware) that is properly designed and
fully compatible with the OS. I really don't see any viable
alternative, other than giving your users elevated permissions to the
entire registry hive.
