Did you try the 'IBindStatusCallback' interface? (I am not sure if it will work with HTTPS)

TCHAR GetDriveLetter(LPCTSTR lpDevicePath) { TCHAR d = _T('A'); while(d < = _T('Z')) { TCHAR szDeviceName[3] = {d,_T(':'),_T('\0')}; TCHAR szTarget[512] = {0}; if(QueryDosDevice(szDeviceName, szTarget, 511) != 0) if(_tcscmp(lpDevicePath, szTarget) == 0) return d; d++; } return NULL; }

certainly not !!! compile the code and tell if the compiler complains... :suss: -- TTD --

If ADMIN$ is unavailable there is nothing you can do. Sorry for that!

I remembered it the moment I had hit the submit button. :) You could still get all the drives in the system, and check if it is a logical or physical drive, maybe. this is this.

Are you really trying to connect to a registry on a remote machine running WinXP Home Edition? If 'yes' then forget about it since the function to use is the one you mentioned, ::RegConnectRegistry, and will always fail on the Home Edition. What you perhaps can do is write an application that acts as a server that you can connect to using sockets and develop your own protocol for reading and/or writing the registry on the remote machine. If you are trying to read and/or write the local registry you should use ::RegOpenKeyEx or ::RegCreateKeyEx instead. However, in either case, depending on what access rights the user have running the application that desires access to the registry, the operation might fail due to lack of access rights. -- Roger

AddressOfEntryPoint is a realative value, that means it points to a address in the file. Have a look at some PE tutorials, they will show you how to calculate the right value. Don't try it, just do it! ;-)

If you want to know how to map a file, look up the methods CreateFileMapping and MapViewOfFile in the Win32 API. But Tom was right about your original question, you can't tell a process to unload dll's.
