Claudiu.Popa added the comment:

I'm working on this issue and I have a minimal patch ready, but it depends on 
issue21518, which proposes adding UnloadKey to winreg, so that we can unload 
the keys mounted with LoadKey. Also, that issue adds a mechanism for privilege 
acquisition, which I'll utilize for this issue.

[Brian Curtin]

Brian Curtin cur...@acm.org added the comment:

LoadKey and SaveKey require special privileges which need to manually acquired, 
likely via ctypes. #1578269 has some code which does this for os.symlink 
privileges and it's about to go into py3k, so I'll try to piggyback off of that.

New submission from Brian Curtin cur...@acm.org:

Per the comment at the top of Lib/test/test_winreg.py, FlushKey, LoadKey, and 
SaveKey are currently untested.

I have a minimal patch worked up. I'll expand on it and upload shortly.
