I totally agree with you. I have found another dependency to use : Themes, which is less heavy than RPCSS. This works, but it does not make exactly what I want. Indeed, I would like to set some values in a HKLM subkey at windows boot, in order that changes are effective as soon as a user logs in after boot sequence. In my case, registry values are well written, but changes aren't effective yet... So user needs to reboot. I tried to use the FlushKey() method from _winreg module in order to immediately write changes to registry. Changes are written, but not effective. I thought that user's login refreshed the registry, and then changes could
have taken effect, but it seems not to be really the case.
Is there any other Python _winreg method that could force registry changes to become effective as soon as
changes are written into the registry ?
