Duchess Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 My question's regarding the Dword value in the registry. I would like to know what the zero, and one mean in registry terms. I've been told that the zero stands for no or deny, while the one meant yes or allow. Is that correct?I've Googled for information on this subject but nothing was available on this topic.
