Add custom theme to list of themes on TeeChart Editor

Using Windows XP, we could add a custom theme to the list of themes in the TeeChart Editor by saving the custom theme to a directory (example: "c:\_chart_themes"), then creating a registry key [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Steema Software\TeeChart.NET] then adding an item under that key: "ThemeFolder"="C:\_chart_themes"

This doesn't work in Windows 7. Is there a workaround?

The issue here could be administrator privileges, which are needed for access to the registry. Does the code work if you run Visual Studio as "Run as administrator" or if you run the resulting *.exe with these privileges?
