Regsitry permissions

[Mark Castelli]

What security permissions or settings are required to modify the registry?
I'm trying to script an update to HKCU, but it is repeatedly failing due to
permissions.

You can examine the permissions on the key you're interested in by loading
regedt32.exe and clicking on the security menu.

Most of HKCU is writeable by the users group.
