How Take Ownership of Registry Key with .NET 2.0?

How does one go about taking ownership of a registry key using C# & .NET 2.0
*IF* one has _only_ TakeOwnership privilege?

The problem is exactly as specified in MS KB Article ID: 111546 at:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/111546/EN-US/

...except that I would like to know how to do it in C#

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, I recently had a problem where I decided to store objects in a vector. (Previously, I had always stored pointers in vectors). Well, naturally, when storing an object in a vector, using push_back, the object I had in hand was getting copied (twice, in fact). That led to a problem, in that my object contained a "handle" to another object, and when the object being pushed went out of scope and was destroyed, the referenced object was...

I spent tons of time searching the web for how to use .NET 2.0 and C# to modify Registry key security. After finally finding an example, and once I knew the function names a few other small examples.. I can still find nothing that demonstrates how to take ownership of a Registry key if one has (potentially) *only* "write owner" The problem, of course is that normally, to read or change permissions, one needs to "open" the registry key to...

Hello, I need to programmatically take ownership of a registry-key as current user using VB2005. To test this , i created a key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\TestKey and removed all accessrights from this key using RegEdt32. Now i tried to set the accessrights by my programm. Since i do not have rights to this key, i cannot open the key to get a handle for modifying the rights.
