Disable User Tracking (Windows 2000/XP)
Category: Home > Security > Privacy
This setting stops Windows from recording user tracking information including which applications a user runs and which files and documents are being accessed.
Open your registry and find the key below.
Create a new DWORD value named "NoInstrumentation" and set the value equal to "1" to enable the restriction.
You may need to log-off for the change to take effect.
Note: If this restriction is enabled customized menus and other features that require user tracking information are disabled.
