Registry API
Registry key parameters use HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, HKEY_CURRENT_USER,
HKEY_USER to specify the subtree of the registry. For example,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion.
For performance reasons, it is important to use the same case when specifying the same
registry key in multiple calls. Even though the windows registry is not case-sensitive, the
test result cache is case-sensitive.
