HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WINS\

Description

The Wins\Parameters subkey stores general configuration data for WINS, that is, configuration data that is not related to replicating the WINS database.

Windows Internet Name Service (WINS) associates IP addresses to more familiar DNS and NetBios computer names. WINS enables users to find computer resources by their familiar names, instead of requiring them to use IP addresses.
