If I try to modify a registry value with 'key.setValue()', I get an error 5, which I think is ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED. Even if I right click my .exe and choose 'run as Administrator'. I am on Windows 7 x64, and dmd 2.060. From my research, I think I have to modify my privilege tokens:

But this example calls methods in advapi that I can't find any bindings for in the D source, namely:
    OpenProcessToken
    LookupPrivilegeValueW
    AdjustTokenPrivileges

Any ideas?
