Make Win XP registry "amnesom" simpler

Windows XP's registry editor has a memory function, it will automatically locate the last key that was last opened when the registry was opened. This smart function does not make much sense. Instead, it will reveal our secrets and can ban it in many ways that prohibit it. For example: build a batch file and registry edit file, and then run the batch file. This method can run the registry editor after running the batch file to disable the memory function, but you need to run the batch file or put the batch file into the boot menu every time you use the registry, if the batch is not running. The file, automatic memory function will be automatically opened again. There are also methods such as writing a script, which is really troublesome.

In fact, to make the registry "amnesom" is very simple, just locate the registry editor to the "HKEY_CURRENT_USE R\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Applets\\Regedit" item, right click on it, select "Permissions", Check the Full Control and Read options as Reject in the Permissions dialog. This way the memory function of the registry editor is disabled. However, using this method will also make the registry editor's favorites function disabled at the same time, which is inconvenient for daily editing of the registry.

At this time, you can create a new Favorites item under "HKEY_CURRENT_US ER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Applets", and then set the permissions of the Regedit item to reject according to the above example. This will disable the memory function of the Registry Editor without affecting the use of Favorites.

Tip: When setting permissions, if you have administrator privileges, you can set all users' full control and read to reject. This way the registry editor's memory function will be disabled no matter which user is logged into the system.
