I’d like to read/write some registry information from my non-admin Windows Service, and have it applied regardless of the user logged in. Would using a subkey of HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT do the trick?
Essentially, something like CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA but in the registry.
Thanks!
What do you mean by “have it applied”? I assume you mean write it to one place and all other users can read it; in that case, HLKM is the only answer. Why not change your service to run under one of the service accounts?
