Do you have such troubles-your friends did not allow you to open your computer, but you are worried, because there is your secret in it; you are hiding in the room alone to watch DVDs, your mm keeps calling you. It turns out that her computer cannot work due to misoperations ...... What should we do? Windows 98 has a built-in Guard, which is the registry.
Disable the Start Menu Function
Searching, running, setting, and other functions in the Start Menu bring convenience to you, but also bring insecure factors to your system, you can use the following methods to block "run", "Search", "close system", "favorites", and "set" control panel and "" as needed in the Start Menu. the printer option provides maximum security for your system:
Go to primary key HKEY-CURRENT-USER \ Software \
Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \
Policies \ Explorer];
Select "DWORD Value" in the "new" menu, and create five New DWORD values, named "norun" (blocked "Run") and "nofind" (blocked "Search "), "noclose" (blocking "Off System"), "nofavoritesmenu" (blocking "favorites"), "nosetfolders" (blocking "Control Panel" and "printer ");
Set their values to 1 and restart the machine.
After modification, there are only a few options on the menu. "Control Panel" and "Printer" are gone. To restore the settings, you must find the regedit.exe file under c: \ windows \, double-click it, and delete the corresponding key or set the key value to 0.
Let them use Program
If you can set up to allow your colleagues to only use the program you authorize, it is not only a cool thing, but also a safer computer system. It is actually easy to achieve this desire:
First in HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \
Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer create a primary key restrictrun in the window on the right, then, add string values such as "1", "2", and "3" under the restrictrun primary key, and then set "1 ", set the value of strings such as "2" and "3" to the program name that can be used. For example, set "1", "2", and "3" to mshearts respectively. EXE, freecell. EXE, Sol. EXE, then the user can only use the red heart war, empty file solitaire, card program. (If hkey _ CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \
CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer Create a New DWORD Value in the window on the right: "restrictrun" and set its value to "1 ". You can disable running any program in Windows 98 ).
Disable the "network" of the Control Panel"
If you only hate being modified by people, it will be too lethal if you follow the hidden methods of the control panel and printer described earlier, you can simply disable the Network Properties in the control panel:
In the hkey_user \ User Name \ Software \ Microsoft \
Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Network ("User Name" refers to the name of a user in a multi-user system. If no user is created, it is ". default"). Create a New DWORD Value named "nonetsetup" and set its value to 1.
Cancel the document from the Start Menu
The Document menu will collect commonly used files, which can help you quickly open a used file. When you don't want others to know what you have used, you have to turn it off. The method is as follows: To HKEY_USERS \ Default \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \
Select "new binary value" from CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer \, set the name to norecentdocsmenu, and change the value to "01,00, 00,00 ".
However, you may want to have a document menu on your computer, but delete it only after the computer is shut down. You have to create a binary value named clearrecentdocsonexit, change the value to "01000000 ". Note: the comma between 01 and 00 is not the content, but is separated by a comma.
If you want to disable the inclusion of recently operated documents in the Document menu history, you must create a binary value named norecentdocshistory in the original directory, change the value to "01000000 ".
Of course, the registry function is very powerful. Here we only introduce one point. As long as you fully tap into its potential, I think the registry will be a loyal guard of your Windows 98 system. However, I would like to remind you that you must back up your registry before modifying the registry for emergency purposes. (Source: CCID-China Computer News)
