after June 2013, the Direct3D subkey at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Direct3D was altered, no longer inheriting permissions, but having them set explicitly with Administrator and System having Read Only access, leaving TrustedInstaller as the only one that can make changes to this subkey and its children.

Tested on Windows 7, this means the radio dial for the debug layer switches back to Retail on the next start unless executed from a tool such as RunAsTI as well as the various checkboxes on the D3D9 tab not saving anything.
