Denied Acces to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Record when Regasming

[richard.Anaya]

I require some help with an issue with Microsoft .NET. Some users
experience a problem with their installation of our product and the
registration of some classes with regasm (so COM can have access to
them). They get the error message:

Additional information: Access to the registry key
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Record
is denied.

Our current hack around this is an attempt to change registry
permission settings *sigh* I know, this didn't work in all cases but
this is leading us down a path of changing Adminstrator permissions on
several levels of registries. Is this a known problem? I've seen
articles out on Google that just end off in "do you have administrator
permissions?" Is Microsoft installing core library foundations without
the capabilities to use them?

I have a similar problem while trying to register a COM exposed .NET dll.
While regitering it with REGASM, I am getting the following error:

I am also facing the same problem.

Actually i am working on one application in .NET 2005 using C#. This application uses C++ unmanged code. This unmanged code calls functions of managed code. I have done this work by refering this MSDN site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/828736. The machine that i am using has admin rights. The application runs fine at my machines as well as other machines those have admin rights. But when i build application at machine that does not have admin rights then two error occurs which says:

1. RegAsm : error RA0000 : An error occurred while writing the registration information to the registry. You must have administrative credentials to perform this task. Contact your system administrator for assistance
2. Project : error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "Performing Pre-Link Event..."


If i make installer of this application then it installs & works properly at machine that has admin right. But when i run the application at machine that do not have admin right then application does not run. I could not find what is happening.

Could any one please help me? It is very urgent. Any help would be highly appreciable.

Thanks in advance.

Generally, your choices are to run as administrator, or use only keys under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER, which are normally read/write. Installers are (I believe)
always running under admin preveledges to install. An application may read
from
other branches as necessary.
