The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Win32 Device Development Kit (DDK) for Windows NT, version 3.1

SYMPTOMS

A return code of an invalid parameter is the result if you call any of the Zw calls from a kernel-mode driver using KeyFullInformation as the IN KEY_INFORMATION_CLASS parameter.

The Zw calls are responsible for registry manipulation and include:

  • ZwEnumerateKey
  • ZwEnumerateValueKey
  • ZwQueryKey

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft product listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was corrected in the DDK for Windows NT version 3.50.
