Description
Reads data from a registry entry in the current key.
The GetDataAsString method returns the data from the registry entry with the name ValueName as a string.
The function behaves similarly to the GetData method, with the exception that regardless of the data type it encounters, it writes that data type as a string.
When set to True, PrefixType enables the prefixing of integer, binary, or unknown data types. The prefixes being used are dword: and hex:
Note: If the value being read is of type integer and the PrefixType is set, the value will be output as "prefix+hex" (for example, "dword:A"); otherwise, the value will be output as "decimal" (for example, "10").
