Remarks
For storage objects opened in transacted mode, the IStorage::Revert method discards any uncommitted changes to this storage object or changes that have been committed to this storage object from nested elements.
After this method returns, any existing elements (substorages or streams) that were opened from the reverted storage object are invalid and can no longer be used. Specifying these reverted elements in any call except IStorage::Release returns the error STG_E_REVERTED
This method has no effect on storage objects opened in direct mode.
