hi, everybody,

I look the manual, it say "To get an instance of a
RegistryKey, use the static member OpenSubKey". But
I find OpenSubKey method is not static. How can I
create an instanse of a RegistryKey?

thanks

The Registry class has static members representing the different root
hives (HKLM, HKCU and so on). Call OpenSubKey on one of those, for
example

RegistryKey key =
Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("Software\\YourCompany");
