RegistryPolifyFile always returns Compliant if Key includes "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\" #29

Details of the scenario you tried and the problem that is occurring

When testing, if the Key property contained 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\' in the string, the resource always returned compliant.

RegistryPolicyFile 'AllowInputPersonalization' { Ensure = 'Present' Key = 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\InputPersonalization' TargetType = 'ComputerConfiguration' ValueName = 'AllowInputPersonalization' ValueType = 'DWord' ValueData = '0' }

Although the value of 'Key' should not contain this additional text, it was unexpected for TEST to return 'Compliant'.

Suggested solution to the issue

It's possible a string is matching in an unexpected way?
