Remarks

The _WinAPI_RegFlushKey() function returns only when all the data for the hive that contains the specified key has been written to the registry store on disk.
The _WinAPI_RegFlushKey() function writes out the data for other keys in the hive that have been modified since the last lazy flush or system start.
After _WinAPI_RegFlushKey() returns, use _WinAPI_RegCloseKey() to close the handle to the registry key.
