Retrieves a pseudo-handle that you can use as a shorthand way to refer to the token that is currently in effect for the thread, which is the thread token if one exists and the process token otherwise.
A pseudo-handle that you can use as a shorthand way to refer to the token that is currently in effect for the thread.
A pseudo-handle is a special constant that can function as the effective token for the current thread. The calling thread can use a pseudo-handle to specify the effective token for that thread whenever a token handle is required. Child processes do not inherit pseudo-handles.
Starting in Windows 8, this pseudo-handle has only TOKEN_QUERY and TOKEN_QUERY_SOURCE access rights.
The pseudo-handle cannot be duplicated by the DuplicateHandle function or the DuplicateToken function.
You do not need to close the pseudo-handle when you no longer need it. If you call the CloseHandle function with a pseudo-handle, the function has no effect.
