LegacySecureReferences
Determines
whether AddRef/Release invocations are secure for applications that do not call
CoInitializeSecurity.
Registry Entry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\OLE\LegacySecureReferences=
ACL
Remarks
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\OLE
The LegacySecureReferences
named-value is a REG_SZ that provides the default setting for securing IUnknown::AddRef
and IUnknown::Release method invokations for all applications that do
not call CoInitializeSecurity. Values of Y or y
indicate that AddRef/Release is secured. Any other value or the
lack of this named-value implies that AddRef/Release is not secured. Enabling
secure references slows COM.
