Sorry. I believed that RtlCreateRegistryKey with RTL_REGISTRY_OPTIONAL
will create the full path - but this is wrong.
And "Norman Diamond" is right.
The DDK documentation still leaves *a lot* to wish.

If a page of DDK documentation is wrong or incomplete, please let the DDK doc
team know about it. Scroll to the bottom of the DDK page and click the "Send
feedback on this topic" link. If the page doesn't have a "Send feedback on
this topic" link, please send an e-mail message to ddksurv1(a)microsoft.com.

The folks here at DDK docs are not *trying* to confuse you. But if we don't
know that you're having a problem, we can't help.

I'll file a bug on this issue and have the page updated. If you have
specific requests for this page, or any other, send mail to me or to ddksurv1.

Thanks,
June Blender (MSFT)
