Problem with Secedit.exe and registry

[Guest Ranger]

I am modifying some security settings. I have successfully completed the

changes with secedit.exe. The only problem is that all the registry key

values are now lowercase! The database has them as mixed case and shows them

as such when I export them. But when the configure was done, apparently it

changed all the registry keys to lowercase. Some of these keys are Windows

provided registry keys and values. I'm Vista Home Pemium. I searched the Net

and found no hits. Anyone know anything about this? Why would secedit use

lower case when updating the keys? Thanks!
