Put debugger on your code and try finding which line of code causes error.

You never check to see if any of these method calls return anything!

What if the target machine has RemoteRegistry turned off?? That first call to OpenRemoteBaseKey won't return anything, but who cares, right? You just go off assuming that it did and try to execute GetSubKeyNames on it.

Oh, and then there's the CurrentKey.OpenSubKey call you make with a FULLY QUALIFIED PATH instead of a RELATIVE path. If you already have the complete path to the target key, why are you even bothering with all the enumeration of subkeys??

And finally, all you're doing is just setting a value in the registry which won't take effect until the machines next boot. I hope this is what you want.
