Message (Error)

Registry key [1] in Component [2] is a protected registry key. Protected registry keys may not be modified on Windows Vista and later.

[1] is a registry key that only the Trusted Installer group can modify on Windows Vista or later systems, and [2] is the name of the component that contains that registry key.

Description

ISICE12 verifies that the installation does not attempt to modify registry keys that are protected by Windows Resource Protection (WRP) on Windows Vista and later systems. Registry keys that can be modified by only the Trusted Installer group are protected by WRP.

Corrective Action

To resolve this validation error, use the Registry view to remove the protected registry key from your project, or move it to a part of the registry that is not protected by WRP.
