Since you are only writing a new value and not creating a subkey, try
KEY_SET_VALUE instead of KEY_WRITE:

    retval = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, "Software\\aaa", NULL,
KEY_SET_VALUE, &key);

>       else MessageBox (NULL, "RegSetValueEx operation failed!", "Registry
> operation", MB_OK);

What is the actual value of retval and GetLastError()?

>   else MessageBox (NULL, "RegOpenKeyEx operation failed!", "Registry
> operation", MB_OK);

What is the actual value of retval and GetLastError()?
