System Protection is OFF
My System in "System Properties" has its "Protection" as OFF
Start > Control Panel > System > System Protection > System Properties (dlg) > System Protection (tab)
I am trying to clean up my Registry after uninstalling "CutePDF"Q1: Should the "System" protection be Off or ON
- three lots of bundleware with one double negative opt-out that I thought I had outsmarted
- CutePDF do not supply an "uninstaller" any more for their free CutePDF
- Revouninstaller did not detect any registry items
- CCleaner does not find any of the CutePDF registry entries
- a manual trawl/search has found two keys each with 29 data entries
- created a restore point, as insurance
- disabled the "CutePDF" keys by renaming the keys with a "_obs" affix string
- rebooted and no problems
- my inclination is to change it to ON
- but I would like to check with those who really know first (no guesses)
I know ... I know ... an image would have been simpler
- but I am not "there" yet ... when my busy meter slows down to insane
