Multiple calls to this method that use the same value for `name` do not necessarily return the same <xref:System.Threading.EventWaitHandle> object, even though the objects that are returned represent the same named system event.

In .NET Framework, this method overload is equivalent to calling the <xref:System.Threading.EventWaitHandle.OpenExisting(System.String,System.Security.AccessControl.EventWaitHandleRights)> method overload and specifying <xref:System.Security.AccessControl.EventWaitHandleRights.Synchronize?displayProperty=nameWithType> and <xref:System.Security.AccessControl.EventWaitHandleRights.Modify?displayProperty=nameWithType> rights, combined by using the bitwise `OR` operation.
In .NET Framework, this method overload is equivalent to calling the [System.Threading.EventWaitHandle.OpenExisting(System.String,System.Security.AccessControl.EventWaitHandleRights)](/dotnet/api/system.threading.eventwaithandle.openexisting?view=netframework-4.8&preserve-view=true#System_Threading_EventWaitHandle_OpenExisting_System_String_System_Security_AccessControl_EventWaitHandleRights_) method overload and specifying <xref:System.Security.AccessControl.EventWaitHandleRights.Synchronize?displayProperty=nameWithType> and <xref:System.Security.AccessControl.EventWaitHandleRights.Modify?displayProperty=nameWithType> rights, combined by using the bitwise `OR` operation.

Specifying the <xref:System.Security.AccessControl.EventWaitHandleRights.Synchronize?displayProperty=nameWithType> flag allows a thread to wait on the named system event, and specifying the <xref:System.Security.AccessControl.EventWaitHandleRights.Modify?displayProperty=nameWithType> flag allows a thread to call the <xref:System.Threading.EventWaitHandle.Set%2A> and <xref:System.Threading.EventWaitHandle.Reset%2A> methods.
