I have a signed, trusted application in Silverlight 5 (and know its working correctly and AutomationFactory is enabled). However, no matter what I do, I get a COM exception of type mismatch, which is no help, when I try to query the registry. Windows 7 IE8.
{System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80041005): Exception from HRESULT: 0x80041005 ---> MS.Internal.ComAutomation.ComAutomationObjectException: Type mismatch

Here is my code
uint HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = 0x80000002;
var locatorService = AutomationFactory.CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator");
var wmiService = locatorService.ConnectServer(".", "root\\DEFAULT");
wmiService.Security_.ImpersonationLevel = 3;
wmiService.Security_.AuthenticationLevel = 4;
var objRegistry = wmiService.Get("StdRegProv");
string strRegIdentityCodes = @"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall";
string[] result = null;
objRegistry.EnumKey(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, strRegIdentityCodes, out result);
I think you need to do two changes:
1) change:
uint HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = 0x80000002;
to:
int HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = unchecked((int)0x80000002);
to avoid the type mismatch error, and
2) change:
string[] result = null;
to:
object[] result = null;
to avoid a forthcoming "System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'System.Object[]' to type 'System.String[]'"
