Using RegDevelop to create Customized Restrictions and Policies

The great thing for the software regdevelop is that, it lets you customize and create your own security policies based on Windows Registry in just few minutes.

Last month, I started studying all the users interaction and they appear to move in random everyday even if they don’t understand and know the system itself.

Trial and error is always one of our instinct one way or another.

Restrictions

If your using the home edition or other limited version of Windows, the only way you can add restriction is to use third-party tools to easily modify the registry.
