Dear All:
In XP system restore tab page, There is a checkbox "Turn off System
Restore on all drives", I found this is stored in a key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SystemRestore
DisableSR = 0
However, There is also a Drive settings on this tab page, And User can
change the status of System Restore and maximum amount of each disk drive, I
do not know wheer is this settings stored, Is it in some regisry key or other
place? how to get it?

Thanks for your help!
 
There are several utilities available, like RegMon, from system internals,
that let you log the changes made to the registry. If you need this kind of
info, you should do some testing and see what happens.

Hi Gerry:
Thanks for your reply, I will not to modify these settings for each
drive, I just want to read/know each drive (C:\, D:\....)'s monitor status
and their maximum amount, Unfortunately, I do not found them in registry key.
Thanks!
 
Dear All:
I found the data is stored in System Volume Information folder's
drivetable.txt, Do you know how to access this file by program?
Thanks!
