• Welcome Guest, to the Spybot Forums! It's 2025, and we just upgraded our forum software.

    Today is Safer Internet Day, and with our new forum, you can finally use passkeys to login. That was about time!

    Of course, you could ask if a forum is still useful, with so many social media networks out there where you might already have an account, and met a lot of users. You can now use your login from some of those networks to log in here. And by posting here, your question and data is stored on our servers and not automatically shared with a whole social media network.

    We'll also start using the forum for small bits of information, announcements and more again.

Tea Timer

I have blocked something using the Tea Timer.
Now whenever that something tries to change my registry, I get a Tea Timer Pop-Up window which tells me that it blocked a change to my registry.
Is there anyway that I can turn this pop-up notification off for this one particular event? I don't want to turn off Tea Timer. Rather, I just want to quit having this one particular event from showing a pop-up every time it repeatedly tries to change my registry.
 
There is no way to keep those pop-up notifications from being issued if an actual registry change is made. However, if the pop-up notifications are occurring at system startup, the following may help.

TeaTimer takes snapshots of Registry entries and compares these with the Registry at startup. Until these snapshots are updated you are likely to get pop-ups (at startup) of changes you made in the past. In other words, TeaTimer attempts to return the Registry to the state it was in when the snapshot was taken. This happens primarily when you reboot the system. To refresh TeaTimer's snapshot files:
  • Right click Spybot's TeaTimer System Tray Icon > click Exit Spybot-S&D Resident.
    • TeaTimer closes.
    • TeaTimer's snapshot files are refreshed at this time.
  • Restart TeaTimer:
    • Using Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy.
    • Double click TeaTimer.exe to start it.
