New submission from George Fischhof <george@fischhof.hu>: Winreg's documentation lacks mentioning required permission at some points Hi there, on page https://docs.python.org/3/library/winreg.html it is not mentioned in the description of the following functions: winreg.DeleteKey winreg.DeleteKeyEx winreg.DeleteValue that they require KEY_SET_VALUE when the registry key is opened. It is mentioned for example at: winreg.SetValue with the following text: The key identified by the key parameter must have been opened with KEY_SET_VALUE access.
