When does the error: "Flag FLG_ADDREG_TYPE_SZ must be specified for this registry key. " is given b

The following line under ClassInstall32 section of my 64-bit inf file gives error when I run
chkinf tool on the same:

HKLM,SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Network{1a3e09be-1e45-494b-9174-d7385b45bbf5},0x00000010,

Error mesg.
; (E22.1.1112) Flag FLG_ADDREG_TYPE_SZ must be specified for this registry key.

When I change it as follows, the error mesg disappears.
HKLM,SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Network{1a3e09be-1e45-494b-9174-d7385b45bbf5},

chkinf does not give error when I specify flag value of 0x00000010 if I run it on 32-bit inf file.

Whats the problem and why chkinf gives error only incase of 32-bit inf file?

Thanks,

Apparently, the SafeBoot key really wants you to provide a default value
for the key, which 0x00000010 does not do.

HKLM,SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Network{1a3e09be-1e45-494b-9174-d7385b45bbf5},“My

It works even with:
HKLM,SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot\Network{1a3e09be-1e45-494b-9174-d7385b45bbf5},

i.e without value.
