Hi,
From what I see, the patch correcting this bug from Vijay has been refused
because it modifies the name of the RSA and AES provider, which is wrong. However, this patch can be easily changed to keep the current name and simply add a new provider name. So, the declaration of the variable szRSAName should be changed to "static const WCHAR szRSAName[4][66]" and its value appended at the end with the new name of the provider for XP instead of modifying the last field. This way, I'm sure the patch will be accepted. Vijay : can you submit a modified version of your patch.

Hi,
Modifying an existing key is not a good idea. Julliard, is also against it, hence rejected my second try. It will fail for 2003 and Vista. I am working on a fix. Having no time to test, my last days on my current project at work. Pretty busy :( Will send the new patch on monday.
Thanks, VJ
