Write registry keys to current user rather than admin user that installs the application

I have a c# application that writes registry keys to the current user profile on installation. The company wants to roll out the application use an admin user and so when they run the MSI as that admin user, the registry keys get stored under that profile, rather than the profile that is currently logged in.

How can I fix this?

Unfortunately the Asker didn't respond, but the given solutions are valid nevertheless and should be PAQ'ed.
