Prohibit the method of modifying the Win7 system registry

After installing some software, our computer
will always have a small change, not a few more URL icons on the desktop, that is, the default homepage of IE browser has been tampered with into a messy URL. The most annoying thing is that after changing the default home page in the IE settings, the next time you start Win7, it will change back! The default home page of IE cannot be changed back. It must be the default home page item in the Win7 system registry. Tampered. In order to prevent this from happening, it is necessary to start with a strong one and directly lock the Win7 system registry. Disabling access to the registry not only prevents changes to the program, but also protects the computer better, but only if you have administrator privileges.

Operation Steps

To log in to an account with administrator privileges, type the command: gpedit.msc in the Start Search box and press Enter.

If gpedit.msc is run, if the user account control window pops up, please allow to continue.

Open the Group Policy Editor. In the directory window on the left, navigate to “User Configuration>Administrative Templates>System”.

Navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > System Directory, click & ldquo; System & rdquo;; From the right details window to find & ldquo; block access to the registry editing tool & rdquo;, double-click turn on.

The default state is “unconfigured”, here we set it to “enabled”, then click “OK> to save your changes.

Enable blocking access to the registry, restart the computer to test it, Win7 will pop up the disable prompt after opening the registry. In this case, changes to the program settings are not easy to take effect!
