    TlsSetValue only affects the variable for the current thread. The TlsFree function can be called to release the TLS slot index. There is a Win32 Thread Information Block for each thread. One of the entries in this block is the thread-local storage table for that thread. [1] Each call of TlsAlloc returns a unique index
