I am trying to find a way to save common data in my program that will not
change from different users. I tried both HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and writting to
an ini file and storing it in my Program directory. However, in order for
this to work, all the users need administrative privileges.

Is there a proper way to store common data that I am not aware of?

For example, I have a test number that I need to increment. And this test
number must not change when the user changes.

Thanks
 
Sometimes using a database is the best solution to problems of sharing
data. If you don't happen have a database lying around for other
purposes, you might want to consider SQLExpress -- it's free.
