A large number of the unit tests explicitly require that they be run as an 
admin (i.e. from an elevated command prompt).  At the moment, too many of them 
depend on the ability to temporarily redirect registry hives.

We've got a work item to consider refactoring unit tests at some point in the 
future to not use registry redirection, but for now, sticking to running them 
as admin (or patching all such tests to not run when non-admin) is suggested.  
Thank you for the report, though!
