notes:
- Check-mode C(-C/--check) and diff output C(-D/--diff) are supported, so that you can test every change against the active configuration before
applying changes.
- Beware that some registry hives (C(HKEY_USERS) in particular) do not allow to create new registry paths.
- Since ansible 2.4, when checking if a string registry value has changed, a case-sensitive test is used. Previously the test was case-insensitive.
