Blocking Application to Prevent from Execution

Now I will give you a trick, that's blocking application to restrict it to execution. This is an useful trick I think to System Administrator or who have a PC that they want to protect their privacy...

Open your registry editor, then find the following key:


HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Microsoft>Windows>CurrentVersion>Policies>Explorer

If you have found the key, add new DWORD Value and rename it to be DisallowRun. Double click the value and set data value to be 1. Then create new subkey under Explorer key, so the complete key will be like this:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Microsoft>Windows>CurrentVersion>Policies>Explorer> DisallowRun

On DisallowRun key, create new String Value, and rename it to be (example: application1). Double click the value and set the data value by application that you want to block. Example winamp.exe, cmd.exe, or regedit.exe. Close your registry editor. Logout or restart PC to take the effect.
