Comments
EVALUATION The problem is that now that we switched to unicode, sizeof(TCHAR) is not 1, so need sizeof(TCHAR) * (len + 1) for last arg of RegSetValueEx both here in RegFX.cpp, and several other places in UpdateCOnf.cpp

EVALUATION JCP executes the following command to disable FX: ssvagent -high -jpisetup -new -disableFX. executing that command directly also does not disable FX The registry key: HKLM/SOFTWARE/Oracle/JavaFX/Disabled, get set to "fa" instead of "true" when disabling, and set to "fa" instead of "false" when enabling.
