Re: Driver Question

There is no requirement for UNICODE_STRING to be null-terminated.

Steve,

I thought it was perfectly legal to have non-null-terminated strings in
the registry.

This is true

I don't think a missing 0-term qualifies as "malformed", making your
advice even
more important

As long as you expect to get an array of WCHARs, missing 0-term does
not make a string malformed, but if you expect UNICODE_STRING, it does.
This is why I took Skywing's advice a bit sceptically
