I am currently working on an old project, probably around 20 years old. It depended on an old version of ActiveReports software build. When I tried to build the project, the build failed and returns this error:




Exception occurred creating type
'DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Design.Designer, ActiveReports.Design3,
Version=5.1.0.158, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc4967777c49a3ff'
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the registry key
'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREData DynamicsSharpGraph for
.NETWindows' is denied.




I have tried many solutions, including installing the licensed software, and editing registry key. But none helped to solve the problem. Is there any other way to solve this, other than installing newer version of ActiveReports for .NET, that is if it exists?

Apparently, I have to set the VS IDE to 'Run as Admin' in its properties, and then run the solution file by opening it from the IDE itself.



Credits to @TnTinMn for giving the right hint.
