      You have to use the OpenRemoteBaseKey function of the RegistryKey class to get a RegistryKey object returned for the key that you want. In order for you to get this connection, both the Client AND Server machines MUST be running the Remote Registry Service AND have Remote Administration enabled. On top of that, you have to have appropriate rights to the target machine registry for what you want to do. Docs on this can be found here[^]. RageInTheMachine9532
