  • This is NOT to disallow connecting USB devices. This is to disallow WRITING TO connected USB devices.

    Didn't the name "WriteProtect" suggest it enough?
  • Thx.
    After installing SP2 on my laptotp. I was unable to connect any new usb device to the usb2.0 ports. The PC was continuosly asking me for a device 's driver, which of course for usb pen drive you do no need it.
    This new registry key solved my problem!!!!
  • It does not help....
  • The admins over here recently installed this one www.gfi.com/endpointsecurity to block usb device use. I read that they can just choose who can access what. Say goodbye to my iPod music on the pc! :(
  • I find this reg key very usefull...
