Restrict Folder Options using Registry Editing

Its a very simple process:-

1.  Go to Start >> Run >> Regedit

2.  Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER >> Software >> Microsoft >> Windows >> CurrentVersion >> Policies >> Explorer

3.  Now, At right side, create a new DWORD value  NoFolderOptions and set its value to 1.

Thats it, you have now successfully disabled folder options in windows under Tools –> Folder Options.

Note: If due to some virus your folder option gets disabled, you can try the above steps to restore or enable  folder options. You only need to set the NoFolderOptions value as 0 in this case.
