Either nobody knows the answer or it is a really stupid question.
Regardless, I found the answer...
I used this code:
#include <Windows.h>
#include <HSAPI.h>
WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
long err;
err = HsSetAppStatus(HsCloseApp, HSFLAG_RESTORE_REGISTRY);
return err;
}
This works great!
