registry changes disappear after reboot

I have a problem where if I put a key in the registry using regedit,
(post-FBA) the key is gone after exiting regedit and rebooting. The key is
still there if I just exit regedit and restart it without rebooting. So all
post-FBA changes to the the XPe registry disappear after a reboot. For this
reason, none of the post-FBA installs I do are there after rebooting. I don't
have the system cloning tool in the build and I'm logging in as Administrator.

Does anyone have any idea how the registry might have gotten in this state?

Thanks,

Hi Art,

It looks like you enable EWF after boot. You can check the EWF status with
CMD and make sure no EWF or FBWF enable.

If you are using MinLogon, you manually need to call RegFlushKey in
advapi32.dll to save registry changes. (If I remember correctly)
 
Thanks, the issue is resolved. For some reason, EWF was accidentally set to
ram overlay instead of disk overlay.
