How To Disable Low Disk Space Check And HDD Polling – Ep. 24

This video will show you how to create a registry key in your registry that will disable a non essential background process running in your computer’s operating system.

If you are like me, you don’t like windows notifying you about such things… lets disable this pesky rascal.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Policies

Registry Key:
NoLowDiskSpaceChecks (DWORD 32-Bit)
