Fixlet to Disable Remote Registry

(imported comment written by JackCoates91)

Hi,

how did you do it? I’d use the Windows Registry Wizard to edit the HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services\RemoteRegistry Start DWORD to ‘3’ or ‘4’. That’s manual or disabled. Then I’d add

waithidden cmd /c “net stop remoteregistry”

to the end of my action.

Looks like the UI of the registry wizard suggests using ‘0x3’ or ‘0x4’ for DWORDS, which doesn’t work for me.
