KEY_SET_LAYER_INFORMATION - NtDoc

Native API online documentation, based on the System Informer (formerly Process Hacker) phnt headers
#ifndef _NTREGAPI_H

/**
 * The KEY_SET_LAYER_INFORMATION structure contains information about a key layer.
 * 
 * The flags include:
 * - IsTombstone: Indicates whether the key layer is a tombstone. A tombstone is a marker that indicates 
 *   that the key has been deleted but not yet purged from the registry. It is used to maintain the 
 *   integrity of the registry and ensure that deleted keys are not immediately reused.
 * - IsSupersedeLocal: Indicates whether the key layer supersedes the local key. When set, this flag 
 *   indicates that the key layer should replace the local key's information, effectively overriding 
 *   any local changes or settings.
 * - IsSupersedeTree: Indicates whether the key layer supersedes the entire key tree. When set, this flag 
 *   indicates that the key layer should replace the entire subtree of keys, overriding any changes or 
 *   settings in the subtree.
 * - ClassIsInherited: Indicates whether the key layer's class is inherited. When set, this flag indicates 
 *   that the class information of the key layer is inherited from its parent key, rather than being 
 *   explicitly defined.
 * - Reserved: Reserved bits.
