Hi list

Today I try to run my app on another machine to test it just to find a crash on the very start. I find out it was related with accessing the registry (I'm in Windows XP btw) So I cleaned up every entry of my app in the registry of my development machine to reproduce the error in the debugger.
And yes, the app gives an RegistryAccessErrorException when I 'try':

dim exten as new RegistryItem( "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT" )
exten = exten.Child( ExtensionName )

I'm absolutely clueless why this happen as reading the RB documentation it says that :

(RegistryAccessErrorException) /Occurs if you try to use the RegistryItem <../Topics/1996.html> class without proper access privileges or try to use it under any Macintosh OS or Linux. The Registry items feature is Windows-only.

/OK, Macintosh and Linux are out of the equation.
/access privileges/?? Never had this problem in the past until I tried the app on another machine or in mine after cleaning every entry of my apps name. Besides I'm not sure about privileges, I'm running as admin, so I though that shouldn't be the issue.

Any comments will be much appreciated!
Thanks!
