### Description

Commits changes to Registry. E.g. if the system path is updated directly from the registry database the changes take effect only after a reboot. By using the Reg_CommitChanges function a system update is enforced and therefore a reboot is unnecessary.

### Syntax

Reg_CommitChanges() as Boolean

### Example

**VBScript**

```vb
If bStatus Then bStatus = Reg_CommitChanges()

```
