Syntax
Members
Object
A pointer to a registry key object for the key whose name is about to be changed.
FileHandle
A handle to the file from which the hive will be restored.
Flags
REG_FORCE_RESTORE
0x00000008L
If specified, the restore operation is executed even if open handles exist at or beneath the location in the registry hierarchy to which the hKey parameter points.
REG_WHOLE_HIVE_VOLATILE
0x00000001L
If specified, a new, volatile (memory-only) set of registry information, or hive, is created. If REG_WHOLE_HIVE_VOLATILE is specified, the key identified by the hKey parameter must be either the HKEY_USERS or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE value.
REG_REFRESH_HIVE
0x00000002
If set, the location of the subtree that the hKey parameter points to is restored to its state immediately following the last flush. The subtree must not be lazy flushed (by calling RegRestoreKey with REG_NO_LAZY_FLUSH specified as the value of this parameter); the caller must have the trusted computing base (TCB) privilege; and the handle to which the hKey parameter refers must point to the root of the subtree.
CallContext
Optional driver-defined context information that the driver's RegistryCallback routine can supply. This member is defined for Windows Vista and later versions of the Windows operating system.
ObjectContext
A pointer to driver-defined context information, which the driver has associated with a registry object by calling CmSetCallbackObjectContext. This member is defined for Windows Vista and later versions of the Windows operating system.

Driver Restore Scam Or Not
Remarks
Note that when a key is restored, only the last component of the path can be changed.
The REG_REFRESH_HIVE flag is opaque and a filter should not attempt to change it.

Hello,
Yesterday I clicked on a link that said my Microsoft drivers are out of date and I should update them. It then loaded something called Driver Restore from 383 Media to my computer. Shortly after that it said it detected something on my hard drive and wanted payment. I clicked cancel and then a toolbar loaded in my browser. I deleted the toolbar and went to uninstall programs and found 'Driver Restore'. When I try to uninstall it, my Anti-Virus opened a message au_.exe was is not safe and was not allowed to start. I've tried this several times with the same result.
edit- I'm running Windows 8.1
Do you have any suggestions?
