        The LogonUser function attempts to log a user on to the local computer. The local computer is the computer from which LogonUser was called. You cannot use LogonUser to log on to a remote computer. You specify the user with a user name and domain, and authenticate the user with a plaintext password. If the function succeeds, you receive a handle to a token that represents the logged-on user. You can then use this token handle to impersonate the specified user or, in most cases, to create a process that runs in the context of the specified user.
        Parameters:
        lpszUsername - A pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the user. This is the name of the user account to log on to. If you use the user principal name (UPN) format, user@DNS_domain_name, the lpszDomain parameter must be NULL.
        lpszDomain - A pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the domain or server whose account database contains the lpszUsername account. If this parameter is NULL, the user name must be specified in UPN format. If this parameter is ".", the function validates the account using only the local account database.
        lpszPassword - A pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the plaintext password for the user account specified by lpszUsername.
        logonType - The type of logon operation to perform.
        logonProvider - Specifies the logon provider.
        phToken - A pointer to a handle variable that receives a handle to a token that represents the specified user.
        Returns:
        If the function succeeds, the function returns nonzero. If the function fails, it returns zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

                            IntByReference lpcbData)
        The RegQueryValueEx function retrieves the type and data for a specified value name associated with an open registry key.
        Parameters:
        hKey - Handle to an open key. The key must have been opened with the KEY_QUERY_VALUE access right.
        lpValueName - Pointer to a null-terminated string containing the name of the value to query. If lpValueName is NULL or an empty string, "", the function retrieves the type and data for the key's unnamed or default value, if any.
        lpReserved - Reserved; must be NULL.
        lpType - Pointer to a variable that receives a code indicating the type of data stored in the specified value.
        lpData - Pointer to a buffer that receives the value's data. This parameter can be NULL if the data is not required. If the data is a string, the function checks for a terminating null character. If one is not found, the string is stored with a null terminator if the buffer is large enough to accommodate the extra character. Otherwise, the string is stored as is.
        lpcbData - Pointer to a variable that specifies the size of the buffer pointed to by the lpData parameter, in bytes. When the function returns, this variable contains the size of the data copied to lpData. The lpcbData parameter can be NULL only if lpData is NULL. If the data has the REG_SZ, REG_MULTI_SZ or REG_EXPAND_SZ type, this size includes any terminating null character or characters. If the buffer specified by lpData parameter is not large enough to hold the data, the function returns ERROR_MORE_DATA and stores the required buffer size in the variable pointed to by lpcbData. In this case, the contents of the lpData buffer are undefined. If lpData is NULL, and lpcbData is non-NULL, the function returns ERROR_SUCCESS and stores the size of the data, in bytes, in the variable pointed to by lpcbData. This enables an application to determine the best way to allocate a buffer for the value's data.

        The RegEnumKeyEx function enumerates subkeys of the specified open registry key. The function retrieves information about one subkey each time it is called.
        Parameters:
        hKey - Handle to an open key. The key must have been opened with the KEY_ENUMERATE_SUB_KEYS access right.
        dwIndex - Index of the subkey to retrieve. This parameter should be zero for the first call to the RegEnumKeyEx function and then incremented for subsequent calls.

        lpcName - Pointer to a variable that specifies the size of the buffer specified by the lpName parameter, in TCHARs. This size should include the terminating null character. When the function returns, the variable pointed to by lpcName contains the number of characters stored in the buffer. The count returned does not include the terminating null character.
        reserved - Reserved; must be NULL.
        lpClass - Pointer to a buffer that receives the null-terminated class string of the enumerated subkey. This parameter can be NULL.
        lpcClass - Pointer to a variable that specifies the size of the buffer specified by the lpClass parameter, in TCHARs. The size should include the terminating null character. When the function returns, lpcClass contains the number of characters stored in the buffer. The count returned does not include the terminating null character. This parameter can be NULL only if lpClass is NULL.
        lpftLastWriteTime - Pointer to a variable that receives the time at which the enumerated subkey was last written.
        Returns:
        If the function succeeds, the return value is ERROR_SUCCESS. If the function fails, the return value is a nonzero error code defined in Winerror.h.

                        int dwFlags,
                        IntByReference pdwType,
                        byte[] pvData,
                        IntByReference pcbData)
        Retrieves the type and data for the specified registry value.
        Parameters:
        hkey - [in] A handle to an open registry key. The key must have been opened with the KEY_QUERY_VALUE access right. For more information, see Registry Key Security and Access Rights. This handle is returned by the RegCreateKeyEx, RegCreateKeyTransacted, RegOpenKeyEx, or RegOpenKeyTransacted function. It can also be one of the following predefined keys: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG HKEY_CURRENT_USER HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA HKEY_PERFORMANCE_NLSTEXT HKEY_PERFORMANCE_TEXT HKEY_USERS
        lpSubKey - [in, optional] The name of the registry key. This key must be a subkey of the key specified by the hkey parameter. Key names are not case sensitive.
        lpValue - [in, optional] The name of the registry value. If this parameter is NULL or an empty string, "", the function retrieves the type and data for the key's unnamed or default value, if any. For more information, see Registry Element Size Limits. Keys do not automatically have an unnamed or default value. Unnamed values can be of any type.
        dwFlags - [in, optional] The flags that restrict the data type of value to be queried. If the data type of the value does not meet this criteria, the function fails. This parameter can be one or more of the following values. RRF_RT_ANY 0x0000ffff No type restriction. RRF_RT_DWORD 0x00000018 Restrict type to 32-bit RRF_RT_REG_BINARY|RRF_RT_REG_DWORD. RRF_RT_QWORD 0x00000048 Restrict type to 64-bit RRF_RT_REG_BINARY | RRF_RT_REG_DWORD. RRF_RT_REG_BINARY 0x00000008 Restrict type to REG_BINARY. RRF_RT_REG_DWORD 0x00000010 Restrict type to REG_DWORD. RRF_RT_REG_EXPAND_SZ 0x00000004 Restrict type to REG_EXPAND_SZ. RRF_RT_REG_MULTI_SZ 0x00000020 Restrict type to REG_MULTI_SZ. RRF_RT_REG_NONE 0x00000001 Restrict type to REG_NONE. RRF_RT_REG_QWORD 0x00000040 Restrict type to REG_QWORD. RRF_RT_REG_SZ 0x00000002 Restrict type to REG_SZ. This parameter can also include one or more of the following values. RRF_NOEXPAND 0x10000000 Do not automatically expand environment strings if the value is of type REG_EXPAND_SZ. RRF_ZEROONFAILURE 0x20000000 If pvData is not NULL, set the contents of the buffer to zeroes on failure.
        pdwType - [out, optional] A pointer to a variable that receives a code indicating the type of data stored in the specified value. For a list of the possible type codes, see Registry Value Types. This parameter can be NULL if the type is not required.
        pvData - [out, optional] A pointer to a buffer that receives the value's data. This parameter can be NULL if the data is not required. If the data is a string, the function checks for a terminating null character. If one is not found, the string is stored with a null terminator if the buffer is large enough to accommodate the extra character. Otherwise, the function fails and returns ERROR_MORE_DATA.
        pcbData - [in, out, optional] A pointer to a variable that specifies the size of the buffer pointed to by the pvData parameter, in bytes. When the function returns, this variable contains the size of the data copied to pvData. The pcbData parameter can be NULL only if pvData is NULL. If the data has the REG_SZ, REG_MULTI_SZ or REG_EXPAND_SZ type, this size includes any terminating null character or characters. For more information, see Remarks. If the buffer specified by pvData parameter is not large enough to hold the data, the function returns ERROR_MORE_DATA and stores the required buffer size in the variable pointed to by pcbData. In this case, the contents of the pvData buffer are undefined. If pvData is NULL, and pcbData is non-NULL, the function returns ERROR_SUCCESS and stores the size of the data, in bytes, in the variable pointed to by pcbData. This enables an application to determine the best way to allocate a buffer for the value's data. If hKey specifies HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA and the pvData buffer is not large enough to contain all of the returned data, the function returns ERROR_MORE_DATA and the value returned through the pcbData parameter is undefined. This is because the size of the performance data can change from one call to the next. In this case, you must increase the buffer size and call RegGetValue again passing the updated buffer size in the pcbData parameter. Repeat this until the function succeeds. You need to maintain a separate variable to keep track of the buffer size, because the value returned by pcbData is unpredictable. Return value If the function succeeds, the return value is ERROR_SUCCESS. If the function fails, the return value is a system error code. If the pvData buffer is too small to receive the value, the function returns ERROR_MORE_DATA.
        Returns:
        status

        Sends a control code to a service. To specify additional information when stopping a service, use the ControlServiceEx function.
        Parameters:
        hService - A handle to the service. This handle is returned by the OpenService(SC_HANDLE, String, int) or CreateService() function. The access rights required for this handle depend on the dwControl code requested.
        dwControl - This parameter can be one of the following control codes (found in Winsvc.h): SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP, SERVICE_CONTROL_PAUSE, SERVICE_CONTROL_CONTINUE SERVICE_CONTROL_INTERROGATE, SERVICE_CONTROL_PARAMCHANGE, SERVICE_CONTROL_NETBINDADD, SERVICE_CONTROL_NETBINDREMOVE, SERVICE_CONTROL_NETBINDENABLE, SERVICE_CONTROL_NETBINDDISABLE This value can also be a user-defined control code, as described below: Range 128 to 255 - The service defines the action associated with the control code. The hService handle must have the SERVICE_USER_DEFINED_CONTROL access right.
        lpServiceStatus - A pointer to a SERVICE_STATUS structure that receives the latest service status information. The information returned reflects the most recent status that the service reported to the service control manager. The service control manager fills in the structure only when ControlService returns one of the following error codes: NO_ERROR, ERROR_INVALID_SERVICE_CONTROL, ERROR_SERVICE_CANNOT_ACCEPT_CTRL, or ERROR_SERVICE_NOT_ACTIVE.

        Opens an existing service.
        Parameters:
        hSCManager - A handle to the service control manager database. The OpenSCManager(String, String, int) function returns this handle.
        lpServiceName - The name of the service to be opened. This is the name specified by the lpServiceName parameter of the CreateService function when the service object was created, not the service display name that is shown by user interface applications to identify the service. The maximum string length is 256 characters. The service control manager database preserves the case of the characters, but service name comparisons are always case insensitive. Forward-slash (/) and backslash (\) are invalid service name characters.
        dwDesiredAccess - The access to the service. For a list of access rights, see Service Security and Access Rights. Before granting the requested access, the system checks the access token of the calling process against the discretionary access-control list of the security descriptor associated with the service object.
        Returns:
        If the function succeeds, the return value is a handle to the service. If the function fails, the return value is NULL. To get extended error information, call GetLastError. This value is a nonzero error code defined in Winerror.h.

        dwDesiredAccess - The access to the service control manager. For a list of access rights, see Service Security and Access Rights. Before granting the requested access rights, the system checks the access token of the calling process against the discretionary access-control list of the security descriptor associated with the service control manager. The SC_MANAGER_CONNECT access right is implicitly specified by calling this function.
        Returns:
        If the function succeeds, the return value is a handle to the specified service control manager database. If the function fails, the return value is NULL. To get extended error information, call GetLastError. This value is a nonzero error code defined in Winerror.h.

                                    WinBase.PROCESS_INFORMATION lpProcessInformation)
        Creates a new process and its primary thread. The new process runs in the security context of the user represented by the specified token. Typically, the process that calls the CreateProcessAsUser function must have the SE_INCREASE_QUOTA_NAME privilege and may require the SE_ASSIGNPRIMARYTOKEN_NAME privilege if the token is not assignable. If this function fails with ERROR_PRIVILEGE_NOT_HELD (1314), use the CreateProcessWithLogonW function instead. CreateProcessWithLogonW requires no special privileges, but the specified user account must be allowed to log on interactively. Generally, it is best to use CreateProcessWithLogonW to create a process with alternate credentials.
        Parameters:
        hToken - A handle to the primary token that represents a user.
        lpApplicationName - The name of the module to be executed.
        lpCommandLine - The command line to be executed.
        lpProcessAttributes - A pointer to a SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES structure that specifies a security descriptor for the new process object and determines whether child processes can inherit the returned handle to the process.
        lpThreadAttributes - A pointer to a SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES structure that specifies a security descriptor for the new thread object and determines whether child processes can inherit the returned handle to the thread.
        bInheritHandles - If this parameter is TRUE, each inheritable handle in the calling process is inherited by the new process. If the parameter is FALSE, the handles are not inherited. Note that inherited handles have the same value and access rights as the original handles.
        dwCreationFlags - The flags that control the priority class and the creation of the process. For a list of values, see Process Creation Flags.
        lpEnvironment - A pointer to an environment block for the new process. If this parameter is NULL, the new process uses the environment of the calling process. An environment block consists of a null-terminated block of null-terminated strings. Each string is in the following form: name=value\0
        lpCurrentDirectory - The full path to the current directory for the process. The string can also specify a UNC path.
        lpStartupInfo - A pointer to a STARTUPINFO or STARTUPINFOEX structure.
        lpProcessInformation - A pointer to a PROCESS_INFORMATION structure that receives identification information about the new process.
        Returns:
        If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero. If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

To set the owner, the caller must have WRITE_OWNER access to the object or have the SE_TAKE_OWNERSHIP_NAME privilege enabled. If you are not setting the owner SID, this parameter can be NULL.
        ppsidGroup - [in, optional] A pointer to a SID that identifies the primary group of the object. The SecurityInfo parameter must include the GROUP_SECURITY_INFORMATION flag. If you are not setting the primary group SID, this parameter can be NULL.
        ppDacl - [in, optional] A pointer to the new DACL for the object. The SecurityInfo parameter must include the DACL_SECURITY_INFORMATION flag. The caller must have WRITE_DAC access to the object or be the owner of the object. If you are not setting the DACL, this parameter can be NULL.
        ppSacl - [in, optional] A pointer to the new SACL for the object. The SecurityInfo parameter must include any of the following flags: SACL_SECURITY_INFORMATION, LABEL_SECURITY_INFORMATION, ATTRIBUTE_SECURITY_INFORMATION, SCOPE_SECURITY_INFORMATION, or BACKUP_SECURITY_INFORMATION. If setting SACL_SECURITY_INFORMATION or SCOPE_SECURITY_INFORMATION, the caller must have the SE_SECURITY_NAME privilege enabled. If you are not setting the SACL, this parameter can be NULL.
        Returns:
        whether the call succeeded. A nonzero return is a failure. NOTES: 1. The SetNamedSecurityInfo function does not reorder access-allowed or access-denied ACEs based on the preferred order. When propagating inheritable ACEs to existing child objects, SetNamedSecurityInfo puts inherited ACEs in order after all of the noninherited ACEs in the DACLs of the child objects. 2. This function transfers information in plaintext. The information transferred by this function is signed unless signing has been turned off for the system, but no encryption is performed. 3. When you update access rights of a folder indicated by an UNC path, for example \\Test\TestFolder, the original inherited ACE is removed and the full volume path is not included.
      • GetSecurityDescriptorLength

        int GetSecurityDescriptorLength(Pointer ppSecurityDescriptor)

        Check if the if the security descriptor grants access to the given client token.
        Parameters:
        pSecurityDescriptor - [in] A pointer to a SECURITY_DESCRIPTOR structure against which access is checked.
        ClientToken - [in] A handle to an impersonation token that represents the client that is attempting to gain access. The handle must have TOKEN_QUERY access to the token; otherwise, the function fails with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED.
        DesiredAccess - [in] Access mask that specifies the access rights to check. This mask must have been mapped by the MapGenericMask function to contain no generic access rights.
        If this parameter is MAXIMUM_ALLOWED, the function sets the GrantedAccess access mask to indicate the maximum access rights the security descriptor allows the client.

        PrivilegeSet - [out, optional] A pointer to a PRIVILEGE_SET structure that receives the privileges used to perform the access validation. If no privileges were used, the function sets the PrivilegeCount member to zero.
        PrivilegeSetLength - [in, out] Specifies the size, in bytes, of the buffer pointed to by the PrivilegeSet parameter.
        GrantedAccess - [out] A pointer to an access mask that receives the granted access rights. If AccessStatus is set to FALSE, the function sets the access mask to zero. If the function fails, it does not set the access mask.
        AccessStatus - [out] A pointer to a variable that receives the results of the access check. If the security descriptor allows the requested access rights to the client identified by the access token, AccessStatus is set to TRUE. Otherwise, AccessStatus is set to FALSE, and you can call GetLastError to get extended error information.
        Returns:
        true on success; false on failure (use GetLastError to get extended error information)
