Security center icon


Recommended Posts


I tried using the first set of regtweaks from the sp2changes page where it says "These registry tweaks disable the bubble notifications you would get in the System Tray, warning you that the Windows Firewall is off, Antivirus software isn't installed, or Automatic Updates is disabled:"

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;Disable Anti-virus Notifications
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center]
"AntiVirusDisableNotify"=dword:00000001

;Disable Firewall Notifications
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center]
"FirewallDisableNotify"=dword:00000001

;Disable Automatic Updates Notifications
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center]
"UpdatesDisableNotify"=dword:00000001

but I still get the systray icon telling me I don't have a firewall or AV installed. I double checked my registry and the settings were imported.

I'll try again tomorrow with the next pair of settings:

;Override Antivirus
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center]
"AntiVirusOverride"=dword:00000001

;Override Windows Firewall
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center]
"FirewallOverride"=dword:00000001

and see if that does the trick.
