Description

Whenever you open or create a Key, Windows assigns it a unique handle that is used for low-level access to the Windows API. You can use this handle if you wish to make any low-level calls yourself.

If phCurrentKey is zero, then you know that no Key is open; otherwise, a Key is open and this property contains its Windows-assigned handle.
