NtSetHighWaitLowThread

Set → NTSTATUS

NtSetHighWaitLowThread is a Windows NT kernel system call, in the Set category, returning NTSTATUS. Its syscall number is not the same on every Windows release: across the 11 version-and-architecture pairs recorded here it takes 5 distinct values, from 0x008B to 0x00A0.

The number is an index into the system service table of one particular build, not a stable identifier, so it is not portable between Windows versions. The table below gives the value recorded for each.
