Re: prevent cd-writer use



Hello,

Please do not multipost


If they don't have admin privileges, they can' install burning software.

To prevent usage of the windows builtin burning feature:
USER
Administrative Templates\
Windows Components\
Windows Explorer
Remove CD Burning features

Windows Explorer allows you to create and modify re-writable CDs if you have
a CD writer connected to your PC. If you enable this setting, all features
in the Windows Explorer that allow you to use your CD writer are removed.
If you disable or do not configure this setting, users are able to use the
Windows Explorer CD burning features. Note: This setting does not prevent
users from using third-party applications to create or modify CDs using a CD
writer.
