How can I prevent a user to plug in a USB key on a Win7 machine?
I want to prevent the user to plug and use an external player on their machine. I can't find the process. Thanks for the help!
To prevent users from plugging a flash drive, you must plug the USB with Araldite or some similar compounds. Because this would be counterproductive, the answer is 'no', you can't do that.
To prevent users from access data on USB flash drives, you must create this registry key:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\RemovableStorageDevices\ {53f5630d-b6bf-11d0-94f2-00a0c91efb8b}
Then, you create the value for key data deny_read (Reg_DWord) under this key and set it to 1. The effect will be immediate and will apply to all users. Is it really your intention?

How can I prevent standard users access records personnel administrator for example. photos and documents
Hello bh51,
Did you run your antivirus as well as any spyware removal? As davidhk requested, then you are able to turn sharing off the coast, but it just doesn't work? I suggest creating a new folder and move the data, and then see if other users are still able to view these.
Please let us know status.

The quick solution is to click on the folder that contains the missing files and choose "update folder location" and then search for the file on the USB drive. The longer term and fix, you must apply is to configure Windows to always give the same drive letter USB. You can do this through the XP disk management application in the management of the computer (the control panel applet). The following screenshot is for XP and Vista and Win 7 will be something similar which is accessed via the administrative tools (see second screenshot).

How can I prevent the software Adobe Reader crashing on my non privileged user?
I am running Windows 7 and I need to create a user non-preferred on my computer. When I open a PDF file, it crashes almost instantly (I can view the document three seconds approximately). If I just open Adobe Reader without a PDF and click on Edit-> Preferences, it crashes. If I open a PDF file in any browser, it crashes.
What I was able to guess, it seems that Adobe Reader tries to read the registry of my privileged user. I have tried to uninstall Adobe Reader, temporarily to grant privileges to my non-privileged user, install Adobe Reader on this user, and then remove the permissions, but the accident is still happening. The only way to stop Adobe Reader to plant is to start the program as an administrator, or change the type of administrator account. How can I prevent the software Adobe Reader crashing on my non privileged user?
I had corruption of the registry "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders", where many of the keys have values set for the directories of the user of my administration. I did not write exactly which keys have been corrupted and causing the accident, but once I have finished all the fixing Adobe Reader worked perfectly and I was able to open the preferences.

When you shut down the computer, there is also a checkbox asking you if you want to keep the configuration of the application that you have at that time, in which case it will return all open applications.

For those who want to delete the user name and the image of user account from the Start Menu, in order to have a blue white Panel at the top, try this:

Regarding the pressing 'F1' to start Windows, you have made no changes or was there a system crash after which the problem started?
You may need to change the boot sequence in the BIOS to the default settings. I recommend you contact your PC vendor for this.
Warning of the BIOS:
BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk. -

How can I prevent the Thunderbird goes directly to the next message after you delete that I read? I want to return to the list of all incoming mail, so I can choose what email I open then. I could see something that I don't want to open at all, but the way it is set up right now, it opens the following email automatically.
Thank you. I don't want to download an add-on, so I tried the messages pane, and I guess it will do. I used Thunderbird a few years ago and he used to have an option where it would go after deleting a message during the consultation in its own window. But I think I can live with this option. so thank you once again.
