Warning: This tip is only for the most advanced users. Tweaking the Registry is very risky. Always back up the Registry before you make any changes. To lock your desktop settings, from the Start menu, choose Run, then enter RegEdit. Under HKEY_CURRENT_USER, select Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Policies/Explorer. In the right-hand pane, right-click on NoSaveSettings, then select Modify. To disable Windows' ability to save settings on exit, add a numeral one (1) to the current value. Save your changes, quit RegEdit, then restart your computer. "
