Here’s a quick write-up of the fundamentals of registry SDDLs that you may find helpful.

Just like files in Windows have Access Control Entries (ACEs), registry keys also can control what users and user groups can create/edit/delete keys. This is done using a Security Description Definition Language (SDDL).

SDDL syntax is a list of ACEs that state what level of access a user/group has for a given key, and whether it is to be inherited by the child keys.

Example: sddl="O:BAG:SYD:PAI(A;CI;KA;;;BA)(A;CI;KR;;;AU)(A;CI;KA;;;LS)(A;CI;KA;;;NS)(A;CI;KR;;;IU)(A;CI;KA;;;SY)"

Let’s break this down.

Symptoms (for me):

Itchy throat (first sign of something wrong) - this seems fairly common, based on other people's experiences that I've read. I had an itchy throat as the only symptom for 2 whole days before the other symptoms showed up.
Runny nose - clear nasal discharge that lasted about 4 days.
Fever - I had a fever of about 100.4ºF for 1 day, and a slightly elevated temperature for another day. Tylenol helped keep this in check, but the fever subsided fairly quickly.
Cough - I had a very minor cough (about 3 coughs/hour) for 3 days. Coughed up phlegm very few times.
Sinus pressure - The feeling where my sinuses feel a bit full, exerting pressure on my face. This has reduced, but not gone away 14 days later.

	# Prologue
	Elina was an adrenaline junkie. She was most happy when hurtling towards the earth’s surface, zen when scuba diving, and at peace when not at rest. She attributed a large part of her nature to her parents - programmers at large tech companies in Seattle, who introduced her to the great outdoors at a young age. Her parents were what Elina’s friends would call ‘weird’. Geeks who fully embraced the nerd subculture, routine board gamers, amateur astronomers, sci-fi aficionados. Indeed, they had named their only child an anagram of the word ‘alien’, by design - Elina was very special to her parents.
