Have you tried reading NTUSER.DAT files using your registry library?

AFAIK, there are at least three different registry formats:

- - CREG (used by Win9x)
- - regf (used by NT4, Win2k)
- - winxp (used by Windows XP for some registry hives; it still uses the
Win2k format for the others)

HKEY_CURRENT_USER might be living in the new format, though I have
never looked at a NTUSER.DAT file from XP. I also don't know how
different the XP format is from the NT4/Win2k one.
Cheers,

Jelmer
