Copy this code to a file with .reg extension (ex: run.reg) and double click it. This will adjust required entries.
You may also follow
Microsoft article for this. Note that registry settings come in to effect only after restart. So make sure you restart your PC.
Code: Select all
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\JSFile\Shell]
@=”Edit”
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\JSEFile\Shell]
@=”Edit”
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VBEFile\Shell]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
“DisallowRun”=dword:00000001
“NoDriveAutoRun”=hex:ff,0f,00,00
“NoDriveTypeAutoRun”=dword:000000b5

I will do something for people in our area who use computers without a good antivirus by using above reg edit.

safe mode doesn't stop all the virus. There are lots of virus which run in safe mode too.
