Search Path Registry Settings (Compact 2013)
3/28/2014
You can extend the default search path that the kernel uses to locate .dll and .exe files.
The following registry key example shows how to extend the search path:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Loader]
"SystemPath":REG_MULTI_SZ
You can add several additional paths.
This registry value has a maximum length of MAX_PATH characters, including the terminating null character.
A path specified by the OEM is the last path to be searched when locating a .dll or .exe file.
This registry value is read-only when the OS starts.
For more information about these registry settings, see CreateProcess and LoadLibrary.
