(I used Application.StartupPath) points me to the user folder of the active user if I am not mistaken

So I thought I would access the registry entry that I put in order for it to start up at startup but I get access denied.

If you can't read my code, try converting it here[^]

string keyName = @"SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment\";
string path = (string)Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(keyName).GetValue("variablename", "", RegistryValueOptions.DoNotExpandEnvironmentNames);

Like I said I used Application.StartupPath and it works but only when I start it
myself. When it runs automatically at startup, "Application.StartupPath" points
to c:\users\current user.

Where I got stuck was trying to retrieve the variable. It would require
elevation as well which was unacceptable.

            key.SetValue("foldertest", path);
        }

        {
