Details

HKEY is a pointer type, which makes it 64-bits in Win64.  We use 32-bit values in nsIWindowsRegKey though, which seems wrong, for compatibility with Win64.

This is a minor issue though, since the 32-bit values will be implicitly cast to 64-bit values.
Severity: normal → S3

Is this still an issue with current version?

It doesn't look like this has changed in a long time, so I think it is still relevant. Like comment 0 says, it doesn't seem like a big issue, though.
