Hello I have a question about the Nessus Compliance Check White Paper, on page 21 under the Reg Check topic there is the following statement "This policy item checks if the registry key (or item) exists or not. The check is performed by calling the functions RegOpenKey and RegQueryValue."

Does this limit any checks created with this function to only be able to check 16 bit Window system?


No. In fact the function used are RegOpenKeyEx/RegQueryValueEx.
