New submission from Makursi <m...@aitag.com>:
I have installed 2.6.2 source(32bit) on Vista 64 bit.
The function RegOpenKeyEx fails with returns "2".
If I change the function to
rc=RegOpenKeyEx(keyBase,
keyBuf, /* subkey */
0, /* reserved */
KEY_READ | KEY_WOW64_64KEY,
&newKey);
it works fine. I have checked this in the debug build with my 32 bit
C++ application. UAC is not enabled on my machine.
I hope the issue is fixed with the next version of python.
Regards
Manfred
