How to Block USB Pen Drive Access?
Hi Cristo,
Definitely, you can disable the Pen Drive so that you get control of whatever loads in it. I will tell you how you can do that which is also
recommended by Microsoft.
Â
Usually, we need to configure the registry key that controls the UsbStor driver not to load on boot.
Â
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesUsbStor
Â
Start > 4 (disabled) the driver will not start on boot
Start > 3 (enabled) the driver will start on boot
Â
The advantage is that this is the appropriate way to disable/enable USB drives. Please note that this trick is not going to work on Windows 2003 version as it will automatically reset it, recreating the USB storage enabled.
Â
I hope this information helps you.
Â
Good luck!
