Changed group policy settings but now Windows is to appear this message to restart again!

I currently have windows 7 Professional 64 and I changed the settings of group policy to stop this annoying nagging screen pop to the top telling me to restart the computer after an update, but recently he has returned once again, and I made no changes to my group policy settings. Is now without taking into account this Microsoft Group Policy setting and not to say that the only way to avoid this is to disable windows update to install automatically?

Please repost your question in this forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7security/threads

Do you not understand that none of the bugs addressed by an update or security vulnerabilities do not take effect until you have restarted?

You understand that there is other than automatic Automatic Updates settings and that one of these other settings allow you to choose once downloaded updates to update are installed (i.e., so that you will not install an update unless & until you are able to restart)? ~ Robear Dyer (PA Bear) ~ MS MVP (that is to say, mail, security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002 ~ WARNING: MS MVPs represent or work for Microsoft

  • How to change group policy for the system restore will create restore point

    I recently installed an SSD with windows 7, it's the default OS and hard drive on a system dual boot. I also have my old HHD with windows vista home premium. I had problems using the restore of the system with the SSD drive and read on a forum that the restoration of the system causes problems when it is used on an SSD. I have disable restoring the system to the SSD, but still he had checked to allow restoration on the vista disk and a 500 GB drive, I have use for storage.

    I managed to create a restore point when you are using windows 7 OS, but when I used my vista drive, and wanted to create additional restore points for two HHD disks, it does not allow the creation of restore points by group policy settings. I regularly create restore for the SSD disk and have created one for the HHD Vista since the system restore does not create additional restore points now.

    How can I change my group policy settings to enable restore points to create the disk under Vista. I don't remember changing anything that might have caused it, is there a chance that a horse of Trojan or virus caused this? I have Webroot antivirus and currently aired Kaspersky Anti-virus on Vista drive. I also ran the Microsoft safety scanner in safe mode and normal startup mode, none of the virus scanners have found problems, so I'm pretty sure I don't have a Trojan or a virus.

    To the point, how to make appropriate changes to allow the restoration of the system to work for my two HHD disks.  Better yet is there a way to restore completely all original windows default system settings without having to do a clean reinstall.

    You can provide any help would be greatly appreciated

    2. go to the following branch: Computer Configuration | Administrative templates | System | System restore
    3. double click on disable the Configuration and set it to not configured.
    Note: If the above setting is already set to not configured, set it to "Enabled" and click on apply. Return back the setting to not configured, then click on apply, OK.

  • Group Policy settings prevent put me the pc to sleep

    I am still an admin, but can not change the settings, someone help, suggestions?

  • Default folders: How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.

    How can I change my default settings so that Windows Explorer, downloads, etc., all open to the folder I chose instead of "libraries.

    Here is an article on how to change this folder opens when you click on an icon in Windows Explorer:http://www.watchingthenet.com/how-to-change-windows-explorer-icon-to-open-a-diffierent-folder-in-windows-xp-and-vista.html.  I think this will do the trick. Otherwise, maybe the following can help (but I think that's the answer you're looking for).

    Here's how to change the default template for a folder:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/70819-windows-explorer-folder-view-settings.html.  Default behavior is to select the model based on the first type of file placed in the folder (you must choose something).  Vista sets thefolder type template according to what are the types of files in the window and the settings display window Explorer. This will show you how to resetthe Windows Explorer folder view settings, disable Automatic folder Type discovery and increase theview of the folder cache to have Vista don't forget display settings, model of file type, size, or position of a specific window for when it was still closed to the location of specific path.  Keep in mind that it works, just a generic and holistic - it will not work for individual folders by folder.  That cannot be done in Vista.  But you can create shortcuts to the folders that you want and add to the desktop or right-click

    It does not work with the Sub record under, Open with,open in a new tab (Internet Explorer), etc... dialog windows of type through the goodFile menu bar item. These don't seem to be able to have their size or their position to recall. For the latter, you can use the free programhttp://autosizer.en.softonic.com/to resize them.

    Here is another article on how to change the display of the default folders in Vista (but she argues, it is not a perfect solution and can revert to the previous behavior is not as good as the two prior links provided:http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-10019957-68.html.)

  • Outlook Express 6 - recently emptied my folder deleted items, but now I can not remove any messages in my Inbox

    For my sins, I always use Outlook Express 6 for my e-mail personal. Recently, I've erased my deleted items folder, but now I can not remove any messages in my Inbox. Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Outlook Express has never reduced the file size of the file folder deleted during the clearance of the output folder. Instead he left a lot of dead space that has not been used for something beyond too much space.

    The good news is that if you simply, locate the Outlook Express mail storage folder and delete the Deleted.dbx file, Outlook Express will recreate a new vacuum the next time it starts up.

    1. Open Outlook Express and access Tools, Options of dialogue,Maintenance tab, click store folder and copy the location. Close Outlook Express.
    2. Click on Start, run or the Windows key + R to rap then paste in the location previously copied and press on . The storage folder should open.
    3. Remove or rename the Deleted.dbx file.
    4. Close the file, and then restart Outlook Express.

    That should solve your problems of deletion. You can also run a Compact on your other files .dbx tabmaintenance Tools, Options dialog box.

  • My family in Windows XP system restore is disabled by group policy. The system cannot me to enalbe this function, despite I have a partition of my hard drive to store all backup

    When I open the System Properties dialog box, System Restore is checked, saying: she is disabled by group policy, and the system you cannot activate this option. I got a partition dedicated to my justo of hard disk to store backups and create Points of restoration with a capacity of 10 GB. How can I solve this problem?

    If you see things like this:

    You do not have sufficient security privileges to restore your system.
    The System Restore tab is missing from the my computer properties.
    System Restore has been disabled by group policy.  To turn on system restore, contact your domain administrator.
    The System Restore tab is available, but the turn off System Restore (disabled by Group Policy) box is grayed out.
    The task manager has been disabled by your system administrator.
    The registry editor has been disabled by your system administrator.
    The task manager has been disabled by group policy.
    The registry editor has been disabled by group policy.
    The command prompt has been disabled by your administrator.  Press a key to continue...
    The operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer.  Please contact your system administrator.
    The "Run" option is missing from the start menu.
    The option "Log off."... ' is missing from the Start Menu.

    The usual advice are something in the sense of "something has been disabled in the group policy...". ", and it is probably true that something has been disabled, but you know what something is and what it takes to do about it.

    If you are using XP Home Edition, you will get away with advice to use the Group Policy Editor, because there is no Group Policy Editor in XP Home and that really doesn't tell you where to look in group policy, even if you run the Group Policy Editor.

    You need a complete solution that works for all versions of XP and requires no hunting around in the Group Policy Editor or registry to find where things are that have been disabled.

    Unless you have disabled these things on purpose, chances are good that your system has a malware infection.  The malware knows what tools you use to try to find and remove, for the malware disables the things you are more likely to consume and prevents them from running if you can't find the malware and remove it.

    If your system has this kind of affliction, all malicious software tools you currently use or have used failed to protect your system so that you can expand your horizons malware detection and prevention to prevent these kinds of afflictions in the first place.

    The malware will be happy you trick into thinking that you need to so something drastic to fix your system - as a facility repair, system restore point or a total reinstallation of XP.  This is what it would be like you, but these measures are not necessary.

    You must solve the immediate problem of the tools does not, then scan your system for malware when you are finished.

    No matter what kind of malware you've used analytical tools, they are unlikely to solve this problem, because they cannot tell if the changes made to your system have been on purpose (you or an administrator who makes them) or some malware changed them, so the analysis tools will let these things alone (it's usually a good thing).

    If your system is afflicted in this way, there are probably other things that also do not work - like the Task Manager, the registry, System Restore and command prompt Editor, so fix them all at once even if you have not discovered they are broken again.

    These commands from registry removes the registry entries that are stop opening programs.  Although the registry entries do not exist, these commands are safe to run and will work for all versions of XP.

    Before making any changes to your registry, back up the registry with this free and popular tool:

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/ERUNT.html

    Open Notepad to create a new text file:

    Click Start, run and enter in the box:

    notebook

    Click OK to open a new Notepad file.

    Copy and paste the following lines of text into the new Notepad file.

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
    "DisableTaskMgr" = -.
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]

    Save the new text file with extension .reg on your desktop or somewhere you can remember with a name you can remember, something like:

    enableit.reg

    After you save the file, close Notepad.

    Locate the file enableit.reg on your desktop and double-click it.

    Alternatively, you can right-click on the enableit.reg file, choose open with... and select the registry editor.

    Answer in the affirmative to the question... Are you sure you want to add the information in the registry?

    You should then see a message that information has been registered in the register.

    Reboot your system and test.

    You can delete the enableit.reg file when you are finished.

    If the registry editor has also been disabled, we first fix (not a problem).

    Given that your system has or has had an infection, follow up with this:
    Perform scans for malware, and then fix any problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

    For the benefit of Microsoft technical support engineers, here are some ideas offered in the past which does NOT help with this issue:

    Safe Mode boot
    Last good known Configuration startup
    A clean boot
    Sfc/scannow in running (or trying to run)
