Fields

Name Value Description
NoAccess 0

No access to registry variables. NoAccess represents no valid RegistryPermissionAccess values and causes an ArgumentException when used as the parameter for GetPathList(RegistryPermissionAccess), which expects a single value.
Read 1

Read access to registry variables.
Write 2

Write access to registry variables.
Create 4

Create access to registry variables.
AllAccess 7

Create, Read, and Write access to registry variables. AllAccess represents multiple RegistryPermissionAccess values and causes an ArgumentException when used as the access parameter for the GetPathList(RegistryPermissionAccess) method, which expects a single value.

Remarks

Caution

Code Access Security (CAS) has been deprecated across all versions of .NET Framework and .NET. Recent versions of .NET do not honor CAS annotations and produce errors if CAS-related APIs are used. Developers should seek alternative means of accomplishing security tasks.

RegistryPermissionAccess values are independent; rights to one type of access do not imply rights to another. For instance, Write permission does not imply permission to Read or Create.

Note

Although NoAccess and AllAccess appear in RegistryPermissionAccess, they are not valid for use as the parameter for RegistryPermission.GetPathList because they describe no registry variable access types or all registry variable access types, respectively, and GetPathList expects a single registry variable access type.
