    Windows 7 Keys Get Restored for No Reason


    I formatted my HDD and reinstalled Windows 7 as usual to install my brand new SSD HDD and usual I came here to get the registry keys I usually install to disable features I don't need. I install the following registry files that I got from your forum:

    Disable CD DVD Burning Features
    Disable Reserved
    Remove Include in library from Context Menu
    Remove Pin to Start Menu
    Remove Pin to Taskbar
    Remove Previous Versions Context Menu
    Remove Previous Versions Properties Tab
    Remove Run as administrator
    Remove Share with to Context Menu
    Remove Sharing
    Remove Troubleshoot Compatibility
    Restore Exe Association
    Unfortunately even if they work after running them, when I restart it's like I have never ran them. The registry keys get restored and I can't understand why if I'm doing it (apparently) right.

    Any idea about what could be the issue?

    Hello Pcsl, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    Does it tell you that you have been logged on with a temporary profile like below when you log in to your user account?

    No, I didn't think so but I checked again and it's not. If that would be the case I think anyway my desktop files wouldn't be keeped and they are actually keeped. Weird...

    Odd. You might create a new account to test to see if it does the same in it as well.
