Unlocker - Delete intractable files


Recommended Posts

You would have to disable SR in registry, but that renders the whole XP stability concept worthless.

It's actually System File Checker (SFC) you have to disable which is part of Windows File Protection (WFP) and not System Restore (SR) which is unrelated and it depends on what version of Windows XP you have as only Windows XP with no service packs aka Build 2600 is registry hack. Service Pack 1 and newer requires way more than that.

Registry Settings

System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]

Value Name: SFCDisable

Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)

Value Data: 0 = enabled (default), ffffff9d = disabled

Windows XP

Change the value of "SFCDisable" to equal "ffffff9d" to disable WFS or "0" to enable it. The other valid hexadecimal values are:

1 - disabled, prompt at boot to re-enable

2 - disabled at next boot only, no prompt to re-enable

4 - enabled, with popups disabled

ffffff9d - for completely disabled

Restart Windows for the change to take effect.

Windows XP (Service Pack 1)

Make a backup the SFC_OS.DLL in the C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 directory.

Make an additional copy of SFC_OS.DLL called SFC_OS1.DLL and open it in a hex editor.

Windows XP (Service Pack 1)

At offset 0000E3BB (0E3BBh) you should find the values "8B" and "C6".

Do not continue if you are unable to find these values.

Change the values "8B C6" to read "90 90" and save the changes.

Run these commands to update the system files:

copy c:\windows\system32\sfc_os1.dll c:\windows\system32\sfc_os.dll /y

copy c:\windows\system32\sfc_os1.dll c:\windows\system32\dllcache\sfc_os.dll /y

If you are prompted to insert the Windows CD, click Cancel.

Restart Windows for the change to take effect.

Once these files have been updated apply the registry setting above.
