I have a custom action that needs to create entries in the registry
under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.  The code is written in C# and uses
Registry.LocalMachine.CreateSubKey().  I added some logging that tells
me that the return value is not null and the custom action does not
throw an exception.  But the key is never created.  What is really weird
is that various functions are called that use OpenSubKey().  These
functions also log correct return values and do not throw exceptions.
But the key is never created.  

 

The custom action works fine in XP but fails in Windows 7.  I am running
the custom action with Impersonate="no".
