I am writing an application in C# (.NET 4) to run on Windows 7. The application needs to access the registry on a remote computer (also running Windows 7) and modify a specific key.
The application works fine if it impersonates a local administrator account on the target computer. But is it possible to perform this function without running as a local administrator? I know that I can set registry permissions on keys (for local access) - the part I am unsure about is how to make a remote connection to the registry key without administrator access.
