Apr 28, 2012I am trying to write an app to automate several things that I have to do on a new computer once I have deployed an image, hoping someone could give me some pointers for them:-

3) changing permissions on an existing registry key to full control
4) changing the "time to display list of operating systems" when booting from 30 secs to 3

VS 2010 Setting Permissions On CommonAppDataFolder
Feb 15, 2011My app needs a config file that can be written to by the user. I've got the Setup project to install it to [CommonAppDataFolder][Manufacturer]][Product] but that folder is then read only to normal users (which defeats the point really!).
I've read various articles on the internet on how to solve this, ranging from making the app a Full Trust ClickOnce app to running a separate app post install to change the permissions.

VS 2010 Public Dataset Or Table To Store Permissions Locally?
Dec 7, 2011In my vb.net winforms application using Visual Studio 2010, I'm trying to work something out and my brain just isn't working today. I'm rewriting this application to make it more efficient and trying to minimize the sql calls.
Currently it works like this.User logs in to the app, it loads the main form, where the user can open up different forms to access different client data. Each time a record is loaded in one of these new forms it also loads that specific users permissions from a Sql Server 2005 table.
What I want to do is when my main form loads after the user logs in, is load a public dataset or datatable, or any other suggestion, storing that users permissions so I can access them locally without hitting the sql server every time the user opens a client record.

Nov 3, 2011I'm having a hard time determining if a registry exists or not.
This is what I'm trying:
CODE:
The registry key exists on my PC, so I'm having a hard time debugging it on another PC. When it threw the error, I commented out the last block of code to see if I was checking the key wrong or if it would throw the error just on the variable declaration.
Which is did. I get why it did. You can't .Open a key that doesn't exist. However, I looked it up and everyone is recommending that we do it this way. But this way doesn't exist.

VS 2010 VB And Deleting From Registry
Dec 5, 2011I have access to VS 2010 through work and I'm having a bit of a play. I'm trying to create a small program to show the installed software from GP and have the ability to delete a selected registry key from a list. Am using a checked list box and 2 buttons. Also have 2 labels on the form but just using them as a visual check as to what the string says.
The program starts alright and gives the list of installed software from Group Policy. I'm having the problem deleting the ticked item. Here is the code I'm using. I think the problem is when it comes to the .deletesubkey line and what I have entered. I want it to delete the selected item rather than have the specific key name entered.
