I tried running this application as administrator, even though I am on an admin account. I even disabled UAC. Nothing seems to work. I do not want to just skip the file, I want to read it.How does a antivirus program scan every file on your computer for errors? How do it read the file if Vista prevents it?

screwed up User Access Control, some functionality does not inherit the accounts true privileges. I built a Command Prompt application and ran it from an Admin account, but I kept getting access denied when I ran it. The only work around I can find for now to shut the dam thing off in control panel.

I want my program to be able to edit a values within a registry key that resides in 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE'
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREXYZ", "MyValue", "MyData")
The above works fine in Windows XP, but throws an UnauthorizedAccessException in Vista.

I am trying to write some code to read the application pools from a remote machine and then eventually I will want to recycle one of the pools. I am trying to use the following code to retrieve the application pools, however I am getting an Access Denied error on the For Each line. There is no inner exception, so that is all I have to work with.
Dim connection As New ConnectionOptions
connection.Username = "administrator"
connection.Password = "password"
[code]....
The account I am trying with right now is the box administrator account.The machine is not part of a domain and it is windows 2003 server with the firewall off.I know the username and password are correct, because if they are not I get an error on the Scope.Connect() line.I even rebooted after that change, just to be sure, but still no luck.

For the past 3 months I have been working on two separate apps. Initialy I started out with Win Vista and things were going great except for how slow my comp was running. So I reinstalled the Vista OS. Everything was going great until Mar 7th when this error just started occuring within my code.
"Access to the registry key 'HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareTornadoAppsSwift BudgetUser' is denied"
"TornadoApps/Swift" Budget are strings created upon App install or first run of App in VB 2008.The "Use"r value along with 9 other values were all working fine prior to Mar 7th.Now this line along with many others like it with defferent strings and values were working just fine till this week. So i figured that I'd just upgrade to Win7 hoping that would fix it. IT didn't. So I reformatted and installed fresh Win7 and still have the error. So I have figured out that it isn't my OS. Cuase it was working in Vista then just quit working.

I made a 30 day trail for my app. When the trail runs for the first time it makes a file by the name of for example C:WindowsSystem32 raildays.txt
In the traildays.txt is the number of days that have passed.
Any was it is a very important file with out it the trail would all was say that you have 30 days before the trail ends. But when i run the program i get this access to file C:WindowsSystem3 raildays.txt is denied. So the file is not created and then the program crashers.
But when i change the Change User Account Control Settings Crap to never notify it works.

I have an old app, a VB5 front end with access 97 databases all works Ok using the ...program files... folders in XP but I now have a user on Vista and we have problems opening up, and I am braced for problems saving and closing down, if we ever get there.
I sent him a c# applet which found the users folder using string Dpath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData);
I have moved the data and all settings files to a folder C:Users[Username]AppDataLocal[My app Name][My app data Path]
The start up routine checks a settings file uses the path in the settings to re-attach the front end database to a backend database, test to see if the database uses replication and set the default data path for the rest of the app. we are failing somewhere in here I am sure. I have checked and there are no updateable files in program files
Have I got the wrong path or is there something else I should be looking for?
I have an vs2008 version of the app which is using a similar location but a SQL server database- no problems

I have this small file search engine here made in VB.NET:
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
ListBox3.Items.Clear()
ChDir("C:")
Try

It searches through your whole C: for the file you entered. Although the problem I get is that some directories get access denied or not existing directories.

I am having a problem. The IO.Directory.GetFiles code is resulting in error do to the fact that it is trying to access the Temp folder in the Windows folder on drive C:. Apparently that folder is restricted... When the code encounters that folder the code stops retrieving files. Is there a way around this? Is there somewhere i can give my program administrator access? If not then am i able to skip the files in that location?

I'm running Windows Vista with admin privilege and UAC is disabled but still unable to write to windows registry!
My.Computer.Registry.SetValue _
("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun", _
"Test", "C:Test.exe", Microsoft.Win32.RegistryValueKind.String)
I'm getting error "Unauthorized Access Exception was unhandled."
"Access to the registry key 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE....' is denied."
I've googled the net and found that registry permission elevation is required for admin tasks, Is there away to take registry key ownership through VB.Net code??

i want to create an enhanced login screen for a windows vista computer. On my laptop i am able to scan my finger to login instead of using a password. This fingerprint scanner is a program/process on my computer. If this program is able to detect a finger print being scanned and then act accordingly on the login screen, even when the user has not logged in yet, then what i want to do is possible.
All i want to do is create my own security/login screen, perhaps mine can replace the default windows vista one on my computer.
So here are my main questions:
1. How do i make my program/process run on the login screen, before the user signed in? (So i may use my own login program)
2. Depending on the anwser to question 1, how do i replace the default login screen?
