CD using the registry drive write protection

Hi all

By the dismissal of some websites, I disabled the cd player written by means of the registry.
But they said after I restart the computer to change the registry.
This change also happened after the restart only.
May I know why this registry change need restart?
and why isn't it mandatory?
Thanks & light

Hi, Maxim,.

Not all the registry changes require restarting the computer. There are some records that have the attributes read-only at the start of the system, when you modify these records, you will need to restart your computer for Windows to recognize the changes.

Hope the helps of information.

    Hi Saleh2506,

    You can try and remove the disc, remove the write protection (by reversing a tab on the disk), and then try again.

    If you do not have the valve on the USB, try the following steps to resolve the problem:

    1. Click Start , type regedit.exe and press ENTER.

    2. navigate to the following location:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrrentControlSet\Control

     

    3. control with the right mouse button and select new and key.

    4. call it as StorageDevicePolicies.

    5. click on StorageDevicePolicies and on the right pan right click and select new > DWORD and name it as WriteProtect.

    6 double-click it and set its value to 0.

    This will disable the write protection on USB/flash drives.

    Restart your computer and check to see if that fixes the problem.

    You may not have the correct permissions or own the medium on which you try to perform the backup.  Here are some instructions on how to give you the right permissions and Take Ownership (if necessary).

    To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder/drive, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/. In this csse make sure grant you full permissions and check also advanced special permissions (including the inherited permissions) which can substitute for this entry to limit your rights by assembling as well.

    To resolve this problem with folders or drive, take possession of the records or the reader (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  You can change now switched to read-only (even if the main folder indicates that they are always read-only - you can access yourself as the owner).  You can keep them in read-only to other users, customers and administrators even (although they can support themselves and access, if they wish, and it is really not that you can do to stop it except protect the file with a password by using a 3rd party product.)  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

    Good luck and I hope this helps!

  • Restart issues "Group Policy Client Service could not connect." "The media is write protected."

    The problem arises when a Norton message requires a reboot. It does not get me beyond the point when Windows prompts for a password. The words appear on screen reboot problems ' Customer Service Group Policy has no connect. " "The media is write protected."

    I cause the phone to crash in order to activate the Windows repair program.  It works but the custody of Norton is disabled. A program Norton Repair heals so that the fault.

    I had several chat sessions with Norton, but they now point me to Microsoft saying that it is a Windows program that is related to Norton.

    Hi ColinAW,

    Your computer is connected to a domain?

    The question could be linked to the program Norton himself. I suggest you try the following steps:

    Step 1: Disable Norton Security software; Follow the steps mentioned in the link below

    Disable antivirus software

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

    Important: Activate security software once everything is done.

     

    Step 2: The computer in the boot and a test

    Follow step 1 in the link below,

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.

    Continue with the remaining steps to pin-point on the third party service.

    After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software.

    Important: n ' forget not the computer to start normal follow step 7 in the link.

    If this problem occurs only updated Norton software, of course, the problem is related to the Norton software, and you can check with Norton again for any patches to address this issue.

  • Satellite U300-14 b: can I use the graphics driver for the Intel page?

    My Satellite U300-14 b (VIsta 32 bit Home Premium, 2 GB) has a 'Mobile GM945 Express Chipset Intel'. Download from Toshiba site, says I've got the latest driver, namely 7.14.10.1263 dated 04/25/07.

    The Intel site lists their latest driver such as in date 7.14.10.1364 dated 11/12/07.

    I want to try the latest version of the driver to help solve a problem of occasional crash / restart when Vista wakes from sleep. I am told that the graphics drivers are often to blame and should therefore be updated.

    Can I safely updated with version 11/12/07, or I risk of problems? Not sure if Toshiba are just slow to release the updated driver, or if there is a better reason that they did not?

    Well, usually you can use the graphic driver directly from Intel page but I found several threads here in the forum that said that the chart non-Toshiba drivers can be installed and used only at your own risk

    > want to try the latest version of the driver to help solve a problem of occasional crash / restart when Vista wakes from sleep
    Hmm perhaps this problem could be related to the graphics driver, but I recommend you to update to Vista and install all THE patches for Vista.

  • Using the HARD drive of a Tecra A4 as a for another laptop external HARD drive.

    I have a Toshiba Tecra A4. I want to use the HARD drive as a second hard drive to another laptop, but it seemed to me that the HDD in Tecra A4 has a special bond that does not fit in a standard externel HDD-Bay. Anyone know how I can use the HARD Tecra A4 drive as an external HARD drive?

    Subquestion: is it not possible to use a 2.5 "HARD drive normal in a Toshiba Tecra A4?

    Hello

    AFAIK Tecra A4 has 2.5 inch HDD inside. But the HARD drive has another connector HARD drive that you can remove. The HARD drive is placed in the HARD drive chassis and fixed with four screws. Remove the screw and the connector. Be very carefully and take it easy.

    After that you can use in other laptops.
