REGISTRY WARNING:

WARNING:  Always back up the registry files before editing the registry.  Refer to Microsoft documentation on how to properly complete a registry backup for your operating system.  The backup may be needed to recover the operating system if changes to the registry adversely affect it.  Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
