Ascii2 Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 A "NoCDBurning" value may be used in Windows XP to disable Windows XP CD-R(W)/DVD-R(W) burning.To disable burning globally, many Internet sources, including MSFN.org forums, indicate that the value should exist at:[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]To disable burning globally, Microsoft TechNet Library indicates ( http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738513.aspx ) the value NoCDBurning should exist at:HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\NetworkWhich would be equivalent to:[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Network]Notice that the keys where NoCDBurning is to be written differ.Which key should NoCDBurning be written to disable disc burning in Windows XP? Should both keys work?
