DISABLE USER TRACKING IN WINDOWS XP TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE

This won’t jump start your XP installation by many minutes but for sure it will make a difference in the long run. Windows XP has a User Tracking feature which keeps track of every activity of users and this data is available to the admin for use. This data is totally useless and hence it is always recommended to disable this service.

Browse to the following registry key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer

Now look for the DWORD value named NoInstrumentation and if it isn’t available then create it. You need to set this to 1 and hence all the user tracking will be disabled.

It will surely save some space and time of yours in the long run.
