Warning when opening the installation file. Alerts from the Help Center
Experienced users have probably noticed that turning off the computer in Windows 10 And 8 became noticeably faster than in previous OS releases. However, there is a simple way to speed up the shutdown of Windows a little more by changing the value of three registry parameters. The increase in shutdown speed will be especially noticeable on older desktops (laptops) and system versions from "seven" to Windows 2000. If you are concerned about the same problem, read below for a short guide to a secure tweak. tweak– “trick”, “pinch”) of the system registry.
We configure shutdown using the WaitToKillServiceTimeout parameter
So, when the computer is turned off for a long time, we will have to resort to the help of the editor regedit.exe. Press the key combination " " and type in the window that appears regedit → "OK"(You can use the search line in the Start menu). Having launched the registry editor, sequentially expand the branch HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control → find and double click open parameter WaitToKillServiceTimeout → change its value from "5000" to " 2000 " → "OK".
This string parameter is responsible for the waiting time for hung services when Windows shuts down (in milliseconds), which we have reduced from five seconds to two. I’ll warn you right away: do not try to set parameter values lower than specified (for example, equal to “0”), which can lead to troubles like blue screen death (English) Blue Screen of Death", BSoD)!
Speeding up shutdown via HungAppTimeout and WaitToKillAppTimeout
Now visit the "bush" HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop , where find and similarly change from the default 5000 to the minimum 2000 parameter values HungAppTimeout And WaitToKillAppTimeout , responsible for the time of forced termination of frozen programs.
By the way, you should not deactivate the WMI service. Windows Management Instrumentation- "Windows Management Instrumentation" branch HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WBEM\CIMOM), as some “experts” advise. This does not affect the shutdown time of the system, but the consequences of such a trick are unpredictable (from the review, " It seemed like the shutdown was faster, I rebooted the computer and then I saw a blue screen...").
If your hands are itching, I recommend disabling the message about forced shutdown of programs that appears during a reboot or shutdown Windows. You don’t have to go far - everything is in the same branch HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Desktop set the parameter value AutoEndTasks equal to " 1 ". If there is none, create it through successive clicks in the editor panel " Edit" → "Create" → "WITHstring parameter".
This concludes our minute-long digging in the registry; all that remains is to verify the usefulness of what we have done.

Policies have the property of inheriting parameters. This means that any policy created in a child computer group can inherit all the settings of a parent policy of the same type. In this case, any changes directly in the child policy become impossible, and in order to allow editing of settings while directly in the child policy, inheritance must be disabled.
If a child group is created, but does not have any active policies, then the active policy of the top-level group is automatically inherited.
Blocking inheritance
You can block inheritance for a domain or organizational unit. Prevents Group Policy Objects (GPOs) associated with parent-level sites, domains, or organizational units from being automatically inherited at the child level.
In the management console tree group policy(GPMC) double-click the forest that contains the domain or organizational unit for which you want to block inheritance of GPO links, and then do one of the following:
To block inheritance in an organizational unit, double-click Domains.
File owners and permission inheritance
The concept of permission inheritance is often confusing at first, but if you understand the intricacies properly, this feature will save a lot of time later. In short, if you set specific permissions on a folder, then those permissions apply to all of its files and subfolders. When permissions on a parent folder also apply to a child folder or file, the child is said to “inherit” permissions from the parent.
Impact of inheritance on file and folder permissions
Once permissions on a parent folder are set, new files and subfolders created within it will inherit those permissions. If you want to prevent permissions from being inherited, when setting up special permissions for access to a parent folder, select Only for this folder from the Apply list. In cases where you want to override permission inheritance for only some files or subfolders, click that file or subfolder right click mouse, select Properties.
This value is inherited, how can you disable the permissions parameter?

Since previously created GPO Objects are used only for user configurations, the part of the GPO (GPO) responsible for computer settings can be disabled. This will reduce the boot time of the computer, since the computer's GPU Objects do not need to be checked for existence. This guide does not cover the computers that are affected by these two GPU Objects, so disabling part of the GPU Object has no obvious benefit.
How to disable the inheritance option
The default user profile in Windows 7 is located at system disk. This arrangement is not convenient for further use of the system. After all, when reinstalling, restoring or rolling back the system to a recovery point, some documents and files may be partially lost, or all of them may disappear if they are not copied in time. Also, when transferring user profiles, free space remains on the system disk, which is directly used by the system for its intended purpose.
More recently, a new creation by Microsoft Corporation, Windows 10, was released. Initially, the public perceived the product quite critically, justifying their opinion by the excessive “closedness of the system.” However, today more than 100 million computers are running this operating system - whether this can be considered a success is still difficult to say, because problems arise that were not previously present in previous versions OS, and it is difficult for the user to solve them on their own. Today we will talk about a fairly common phenomenon - the message “Some settings are managed by your organization” appears in Windows 10, and we will try to find a solution.
What does the inscription mean?
First, let’s understand what “Some parameters are controlled by your organization” means. This means the following: some settings are locked and cannot be changed by the user. Yes, that's right - by installing operating system you will not be able to fully control it.
Why did Microsoft take such a step? In a way, this is “foolproof,” which is akin to hiding system folders on a local drive. However, more experienced users should still be given the opportunity to fully customize the OS. Let’s look at why the message “Some settings are controlled by your organization” appears and how to disable this blocking.
What is the reason?
The reason for the problem lies in the name: it was created by your organization :) A Microsoft organization means either a domain administrator (in case the computer is subordinate to shared network), or the local user himself. Therefore, if you see the message “Some settings are controlled by your organization” in Windows 10, think about whether it makes sense to disable it in principle. If you work in an office, your boss is unlikely to like the fact that you are disrupting the general structure of the software and hardware. For home computer You can safely disable this “option”.
Who can turn it off?
Despite the general settings of the host computer (system administrator), the inscription in Windows 10 “Some parameters are managed by your organization” can be removed by yourself local user. Group Policy is installed for all computers at the same time, but everyone decides whether to follow it or not, so Microsoft gave the local user the opportunity to correct the policy settings and set their own.
What is Group Policy
The main reason why the message "Some settings are managed by your organization" appears is because group policies on the capabilities of the system. With the introduction of this option in new Windows corporations in which machines are combined local network, began to increasingly resort to developing and installing their own group policy. Why are they doing that? The reason is simple - security and unification. When all computers are configured the same, system administrator It’s easier to monitor their operation and eliminate them, and most importantly, prevent malfunctions. Another advantage is that the employee will not use options that he should not use. Together with not such an obvious solution to the problem, this is a good level general organization even for confident and experienced PC users. But what about a home computer? We'll talk about this further.
Problem with home PC
When installing a new operating system, all registry values are set by default, and management of the OS is completely in the hands of the user. Only the local user can add a new value that will block some functions. How? Yes, whatever you want: from accidental to a banal error when changing the registry. Often, when a user wants to change the lock screen, “some settings are managed by your organization” prevents him from doing this. Then it turns out that somewhere the system has failed. Perhaps she independently suggested accepting the group policy, and the user agreed without looking, as often happens. One way or another, the problem needs to be solved, and now we will figure out how to do it.
One goal and several paths
So, as is already clear from the title, we will have one goal - to get rid of the inscription in Windows 10 “Some parameters are controlled by your organization.” There are two really working ways to do this, the first of which involves changing the registry settings, and the second of which is disabling administrative group policies. The second method works flawlessly, but is more dangerous from the point of view of system stability, so do it at your own peril and risk.
Solution 1: change the registry
Let's start with an easier and safer method - cleaning the registry. First you need to call it with the command
Which must be entered into the console (the call is made using the keyboard shortcut Win+R).
Next, go to the personalization section, which is located at the following address (follow it in the system of subfolders on the left side of the registry):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Personalization
Double-click to bring up the tab menu and delete the DWORD parameter. If the problem is with the lock screen, it will be called NoLockScreen.
As you can see, this method is quite simple, but it does not always save. Now we will get rid of group policy settings by changing them.
Solution 2: change group policies
As mentioned earlier, this method is more dangerous in terms of the system’s crash resistance, but it works flawlessly. So let's get started.
- First, do backup copy all important files on your computer. In general, it is a good idea to always have a backup copy to avoid losing important documents.
- Bring up system prompt Win+R, enter the gpedit.msc command into it, which will open the Local Group Policy management console.
- Follow the path Local Computer Policy -> Computer Configuration -> Administrative templates to tab All Settings in the right drop-down menu of the console. A section will open that contains information about system policies available for configuration.
- Now sort the entire list by the State field until those policies that are in state are at the top of the list. Enabled or Disabled.
- Select those that interfere with your work and put them in a state Not configured, which means "Not Specified". If you want the “Some settings are managed by your organization” message in Windows 10 to disappear forever, turn everything off.
Carry out similar actions in the drop-down menu User Configuration(it is located under computer configurations).
Method 2
The “Some settings are managed by your organization” problem, the solution to which is not so difficult, can be resolved by another method based on resetting group policies. So, let's go through the steps:
- Call the console cmd command, which should be entered in the “Run…” line (called Win+R).
- You must enter the following command into it:
Secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose
After execution, you need to reboot the system.
Alternative Methods
There are several more radical methods for clearing local group policies of the system, however, we will not talk about them in this article, since in the hands of inexperienced users, with a 90% probability they will lead to the fact that logging into the system will be impossible, and the computer will have to be taken to a specialist . We have already found the answer to the question “Some parameters are managed by your organization” and how to remove this inscription, so there is absolutely no need to complicate the process.
If you find that the lock has been installed recently, perhaps rolling back the system to previous settings will help. This will restore the registry and return the previous Group Policy settings.
Share your experience in the comments and suggest alternative ways to eliminate the inscription that blocks the ability to fully configure the system. Good luck to all!
Autostart of programs is an absolutely necessary function for the normal operation of a computer. With autorun, the operating system independently launches those programs that must run continuously while the computer is running. But, some program developers abuse this function. As a result, many programs that the user does not need at all on a regular basis load automatically and create a constant load on the computer without performing any useful work. In this material you will learn how to disable autorun programs in Windows 7.
There are several ways to disable autorun programs in Windows 7. First, you can open the program's settings and disable the autorun feature. But, unfortunately, not all programs have such functions in the settings. In addition, if you want to disable autorun of several programs at once, then this method will not be very convenient and will take a lot of time. In such cases, you can use the MSCONFIG utility or special programs to disable autorun programs.
Method No. 1. Disable autorun of the program using its settings.
Open the desired program and go to its settings. Here you need to find the AutoPlay feature and disable it. Let's demonstrate this using the example of the uTorrent program.
Launch the program and open the “Settings” menu. In this menu, select “Program Settings”.
After this, a window with program settings will open in front of you. Find the autorun feature of this program and disable it. In the case of uTorrent this function located on the General tab.
After setting up the program, close the window by clicking on the “Ok” button to save the changes. That's it, in this simple way we disabled autostart of the uTorrent program in Windows 7.
Method No. 2. Disable autorun using the MSCONFIG utility.
Here you can see a list of programs that start automatically immediately after the Windows 7 operating system starts. To disable their autorun, just uncheck the box next to the program name and save the settings by clicking the “Apply” button.
It should be noted that some programs may not appear in the Startup tab. This happens if they are run as services. To disable autostart of such programs, go to the “Services” tab and check the box next to the “Do not display Microsoft services” option.
After this, you will see all the programs that start automatically as services on your computer. Disabling autorun of such programs is also very simple. To do this, just uncheck the box next to the service name and save the settings.
Method No. 3. Disable startup programs using special programs.
You can also use third-party programs. So one of the most advanced and convenient programs to control automatic start is. After launch, this program scans the operating system and collects data about all programs that start automatically. These programs are divided into groups and displayed in separate tabs in the Autoruns program.
In order to use Autoruns, just uncheck the box next to the desired program. Most automatically downloaded programs are available to the user on the “Logon” tab. In order to disable autostart of services, you need to go to the “Services” tab.
Instructions
Display the program launch window. Click on the “Start” button located on the taskbar. In the menu that opens, click on “Run”. If Run is not on the menu, add it. To do this, right-click on the “Start” button and select “Properties” from the context menu. The Taskbar and Start Menu Properties dialog box appears. Click the "Configure" button. Select the "Display Run Command" checkbox in the list of options. Click "OK" twice.
Launch Windows Registry Editor. In the "Launch" dialog programs"In the "Open" line, enter "regedit". Click "OK".
Open one of the registry keys that contains settings autostart A. If you want to automatically launch the program only when the current user's profile is loaded, expand the HKEY_CURRENT_USER section. If the program should start when any user's profile is loaded, expand the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE section. Next, open the Software, Microsoft, Windows and CurrentVersion registry branches in sequence. Select the Run section.
Create a new string parameter in the Run section. In the main menu of the application, click on the “Edit” item, in the child menu, select the “Create” item, and then click on the “String Parameter” item.
Rename the newly created parameter. Right-click on the line “New parameter #1” in the right pane of the Registry Editor. IN context menu select "Rename". Enter a new name for the parameter that better describes what you are adding to the autostart application. Press the Enter key to commit the changes made.
Turn on autostart programs. Change the value of the added parameter. Double-click with the left mouse button on the line with the name entered in the previous step. The Edit String Parameter window opens. In the “Value” field of this window, enter the command that should run the program. You need to enter the full path (including the disk name) to the executable module, the name of the module, and its launch parameters. Click "OK".
Autorun of the program is possible from any media that is connected to the computer. To do this, the media must have an autorun.inf file with the necessary autorun parameters. To create an autorun program from a flash drive, you need to make some settings in the system.
You will need
- - computer;
- - administrator rights;
- - Internet.
Often programs that are in startup interfere with normal operation operating system. After all, they consume computer resources due to the fact that they are constantly working. Yes, sometimes for a quick start you need to leave some programs in autorun. Usually, when installing programs, they all go into startup. Let's figure out how to disable automatic loading of programs when you start your computer.
The procedure is performed as follows.
Option 1
You can remove programs from startup using standard Windows tools, without installing additional software.
In the Windows 7 operating system, click “Start”, then in the “Run” window, enter the msconfig utility command. After that, press Enter or “ok”.
As you can see for yourself, all the programs that were marked with daws were launched when you started the system.
By the way, if you do not use some programs, then you should remove them from your computer. When you remove software, it is removed from startup.
Option 2
By using “hot keys”, namely the combination w + r, enter the msconfig command in the “run” field. There the “system configuration” window will open.
In Windows 10, when you enter the “startup” item, you will be prompted to open the “task manager”. Open it and go to “startup”. There, click on the required program with the left mouse button and select “Turn off”. See screenshot.
For Windows 7, uncheck the boxes. This will disable unnecessary programs.
Option 3
Using third-party software, removing unnecessary programs from startup is suitable for all operating systems. Since additional software is installed on the computer, I recommend using the free Ccleaner utility.
TO What programs can be removed from startup?
First remove the software which you don’t use or which exists on your computer just “suddenly comes in handy”...
Sometimes it happens that users install “torrent clients” on their computer in order to download a movie and a game one time. Mediaget is often installed automatically and the “everyone’s favorite” browser “Amigo”. So, in the case of “rocking” programs, when they are launched, there is always a load on the system and on the Internet communication channel. If you downloaded something, but did not remove it from the distribution. But the Amigo browser just sits on your computer and you don’t use it. I advise you to turn this off software. The logic is simple: if you rarely use the program or don’t use it at all, then why do you need it on your computer?
There are times when it is necessary to remove some programs from autorun in the operating room Windows system 7. This is done in order to significantly reduce the consumption of system resources and increase computer performance, while reducing the startup time of the operating system.
Few people know that some programs are set to start automatically after installation by default. Therefore, they need to be disabled if they are not needed. But it's worth doing this with special attention, since autorun contains utility programs, without which the system cannot operate.
Disabling autorun via Start
Experienced users could familiarize themselves with it without outside help, and novice users need to go to the “Start” menu, then select “All Programs” and go to the “Startup” folder. All utilities that are in this section are launched when the operating system boots. To prevent this from happening, you should remove unimportant applications.
Using the MSConfig program
This application does not need to be installed, since it is already installed in the operating system, so you need to run it and use it. To do this, go to “Start”, select “Run” and enter msconfig. After this, you need to click on the shortcut to launch the program. You can also use the Win+R key combination, enter msconfig and click OK.
Then in the program you need to find the “Startup” section. To disable programs that should not start when Windows starts, you need to uncheck the corresponding boxes. It is better not to touch unknown utilities. Then you need to click OK, after which you should restart your computer.
This program is quite convenient to use, but it is not very functional, since it is not able to disable all applications from automatic launch.
Disabling autorun through the registry
The first step is to launch the registry. To do this, press Win+R and enter regedit in the window that pops up. After these steps, a window will appear with big amount folders with unknown names. To find the folder with startup programs, you need to go to this path: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
The final folder contains utilities that are loaded simultaneously with the operating system. Those applications that should not do this must be removed by right-clicking and selecting the appropriate item.
How to disable autorun using applications?
To do this, you need to use the free Autoruns utility. At the same time, the program has a large range of functions and is capable of disabling all applications that run in a few clicks. automatic mode when the operating system starts.
On the developer's official website there is English version program, but figuring it out is not that difficult. You need to download the archive and unpack it. You should find the autoruns.exe file in the folder and run it. After this, the installer will ask you to confirm your license, which is what you need to do.
After installation, you need to go to the Everything tab, which contains a list of all applications that download automatically.
To disable unnecessary utilities, you need to uncheck the boxes next to them. Under each program there is a line where you can see its description and location in the system. The Logon section contains programs that were removed by other means.
When disabling any applications, you need to know their purpose so as not to cause more damage to your computer.
In the Windows operating system, it is very easy to implement automatic launch of programs, for example, so that immediately after turning on the computer, a virus scan occurs. At the same time, if something starts automatically in Windows, getting rid of it is not so easy.
Automatic launch of programs implies the presence of a special folder C:\Windows\Main Menu\Programs\Startup. I have this folder empty because there is no need for it today.
But, if you place a shortcut for a program in it (precisely a shortcut!), it will launch automatically along with Windows. If there are several program shortcuts in this folder, they will be launched in the order in which they were placed (we bet you didn’t know this fact :)).
To get rid of the automatic launch of a program, remove its shortcut from the Startup folder. True, this does not always help. The fact is that Windows provides several ways to automatically start, and very often, when experimenting with installing various programs, we are faced with the fact that they reconfigure the operating system in such a way that it becomes difficult to get rid of them.
Complete technology for getting rid of " intrusive programs“I won’t give it, because it requires editing the Windows Registry and, accordingly, special literature and professional skills (to be honest, I’ll add it in the next 24 hours). But one place where you can take some limited measures, I will now tell you.
Run the program - System Configuration (System Information), to do this: click Start > Run or press the button on the Windows keyboard + R. The following window will open:
Then in this window we type the command - msconfig, which will launch the system configuration. In the window of this program, on the Startup tab, you will see a list of programs that start automatically. For me, at the time of writing, it looks like this:
You can often see well-hidden programs here, periodically reminding us that it would be a good idea to register one or another program installed on the computer. You can turn off such reminders here ;).
Important. After you remove several (or all, you never know) unnecessary checkboxes, especially pay attention to programs that do not have a manufacturer specified, click Apply and Ok. Afterwards, restart the computer, paying attention to the speed of Windows startup and the system entering full operating mode.
If the download speed has changed in better side, then most likely you have disabled “unnecessary” programs in Startup that were interfering with quick start systems. If there are no improvements, then run the system configuration again, as described above, and pay attention to whether there are any programs in Startup that you unchecked. If the check mark appears again, then this is exactly the case when you need to delete certain registry entries of these newly appeared programs.
When you try to shut down, restart, or exit Windows, you may have noticed that Windows notifies you that the application is preventing Windows from shutting down or restarting. To turn off the system, you must press the " Turn off anyway". If you do not press a button within a set period of time, Windows will cancel the shutdown action. Typically, when the system is shut down or restarted, it tries to close all applications automatically. However, when an application does something in background or if there is any unsaved work, it may be blocking Windows from closing. This is good for the most part because it gives you the chance to save your work and close the application properly. But if there is any application that is misusing this feature, or if you think that you don't want applications to block the shutdown or restart process, you can force Windows to close all applications regardless of their state during the shutdown, restart, or shutdown process .
Enable automatic completion of tasks for the current user
If you want to prevent apps from blocking the current user from shutting down or restarting the system, follow these steps: Please note that changes you make will not affect other users of your system. For example, if necessary, applications can block other users from shutting down or restarting the system. I recommend it, since we will use the registry editor.
1 regedit, then run it.
2 . In the registry, navigate to the following location. If you are using Windows 10 then copy and paste below path into address bar Registry Editor and press Enter. You will immediately be taken to the right place instantly.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
3 . Once you are in the final Dekstop folder, right-click on the empty field with the right mouse button and select from the menu " Create" > "String parameter".
4 . Give him a name AutoEndTasks, then double-click on it and set the value 1 .
Reboot your system for the changes to take effect. After re Windows startup will no longer prevent apps from blocking the shutdown, restart, or logout process. If you want to return everything back to the way it was, then delete the value AutoEndTasks or change these values to 0 .
Enable automatic task completion for all users
You can also do it to automatically close applications for all users on restart or shutdown. To do this, you will need to run it with administrator rights.
1 . Open the start menu and type in search regedit, then right-click on it and select " Run as administrator".
2 . Now go to the following location:
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop
3 . In the right pane, right-click and select " Create" > "String parameter ". Next, enter a name AutoEndTasks and meaning 1 .
