Hi all,
I just tried to install MultiDesk 2.1b.
It does:
Call ADVAPI32.208: RegCreateKeyExA(80000002,41746ba4
"Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Uninstall",00000000,00000000,00000000,00000001,00000000,4186fb9c,4186fb94)

^^^^^^^^ ok
Call ADVAPI32.208: RegCreateKeyExA(000000e0,42299aa8 "multiDesk

^^^^^^^^ ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED !

.
Call USER32.391: MessageBoxA(00000130,4229967c "Error creating registry key:
Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Uninstall"...,42299a64 "Setup",00000010)
ret=41733223 fs=02cf
This seems to happen because in dlls/advapi32/registry.c/RegCreateKeyExA:
if (!(access & KEY_ALL_ACCESS) || (access & ~KEY_ALL_ACCESS)) return
ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED;
and MultiDesk calls it with access == KEY_SET_VALUE.
So my question is:
Is this check correct ?
Well, of course it must be wrong in Win9x, as MultiDesk is supposed to work
there.
But what about Win NT ?
