Disable Network Task Scheduler

Modifying your registry can cause serious problems. Please make a restore point or export the keys affected by these registry files. The batch files export the registry keys for you and are placed in My Documents under RegBackup.

If you are not sure how to export or merge registry keys, I have written a quick tutorial.

This disables Internet Explorer from searching networked computers for scheduled tasks, this can cause long delays when opening. In Windows 2000 this disables the long wait when opening network folders as well.

None really, if you want to undo it, just use the undo file or the export file.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
  Explorer\RemoteComputer\NameSpace\{D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}]

1. DisableNetSchedule.bat
2. DisableNetSchedule.reg
3. UNDO_DisableNetSchedule.reg

Save #1 to your desktop, double-click the batch file, the affected registry key will be exported for you, and the registry file will be merged. If you want to undo just merge the EXPORT_Filename.reg file.

Usually your computer must be restarted for these to take effect.
