Done building target "UnmanagedRegistration" in project "ExcelAddIn1.csproj" -- FAILED. From what I have found online, I need to be running Visual Studio as administrator. This seems like a big hammer for a small nail.

It is technically possible to register COM components as a non-admin by using the equivalent keys under HKCU. However it is not a trivial change
