Registry Keys Reset on all computers

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.security_admin (More info?)

Another suggestion:

click Start and then click Control Panel. Click Performance and Maintenance, click Administrative Tools, and then double-click
Computer Management. In the console tree, double-click Storage and then double-click Removable Storage.


You can apply user permissions to libraries, to media pools and their media, or to Removable Storage as a whole, and this
(unlike a GPO) might be affecting your workstation.
