This is not working for me:

public bool createRegistry()
{
    if (!registryExists())
    {
        Microsoft.Win32.Registry.LocalMachine.CreateSubKey("Software\\xelo\\");

        Microsoft.Win32.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("Software\\xelo").SetValue("hostname", (string)hostname, Microsoft.Win32.RegistryValueKind.String);


        return true;
    }
    else
    {
        return updateRegistry();
    }

}

The exception error is to do with Not Authorized to do this. Any Help would be apreaciated

Exeption: System.UnauthorizedAccessException | "Cannot write to the registry key"
