 * `AdmxBundle.vb`: Defines the `AdmxBundle` class, which represents a policy workspace. Information is taken out of multiple `AdmxFile` and `AdmlFile` instances and processed to discover properties of and relationships between policy objects. Bundle objects serve as links between ADMX data and ADML data, providing methods to resolve text from a language-neutral identifier. Also defines the `AdmxLoadFailType` enumeration and `AdmxLoadFailure` class, which represent problems encountered while trying to add ADMX files to the bundle.
 * `AdmxFile.vb`: Defines the `AdmxFile` class, which represents an administrative template's policy objects: categories, policies, products, and support definitions. That information is loaded from ADMX files parsed as XML. All text in these files is language-neutral; the ADML files provide the human-readable strings.
 * `AdmxStructures.vb`: Defines several classes used to hold information extracted from ADMX files. Since ADMX files rarely make sense on their own, these classes have minimal interconnectedness. Rather, string fields hold the IDs of referenced policy objects.
+* `BitReinterpretation.vb`: Defines explicit-layout structures used to reinterpret signed integers/longs as unsigned or vice versa so that large unsigned values can be read or written from the Registry using the standard `RegistryKey` class. 
 * `CmtxFile.vb`: Defines the `CmtxFile` class, which represents a comments file, which holds the user's annotations on policy settings. Information can be loaded from and saved to a CMTX file (XML format). For ease of use, the class also provides methods for translating policy-ID-to-comment mappings to `CmtxFile` instances and back.
 * `CompiledStructures.vb`: Defines several interconnected classes used to hold information about policy objects. `AdmxBundle` creates these by weaving together information from several ADMX and ADML files. These instances are the object-oriented equivalents of their `AdmxStructures.vb` counterparts.
 * `ConfigurationStorage.vb`: Helps load and store program configuration that resides in the Registry.
