- Issue
- Updating/creating a registry value, and then reading it reads the wrong value or no value at all.
- Cause
- Assumption: Changes to the registry are placed in a cache. So the changes to the registry won't be visible immideately.
- Solution
- Use the System plugin to invoke the RegFlushKey API function.
