• 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.

To start TeaTimer and add a startup entry so that it will start when the system is started or restarted:
  • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced Mode > Tools > Resident.
  • Check the following:
    • Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) Active.
To stop TeaTimer and remove the startup entry so that it will not start when the system is started or restarted:
  • Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced Mode > Tools > Resident.
  • Uncheck the following:
    • Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) Active.

Just to briefly stop and restarted Teatimer:
  • To stop TeaTimer right click on TeaTimer's (Spybot-SD Resident) System Tray Icon > click Exit Spybot-S&D Resident.
    • TeaTimer closes.
  • To restart TeaTimer:
    • Using Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy.
    • Double click TeaTimer.exe to start it.
 
And for temporarily disabling it in the new 1.5 versions, right-click the TeaTimer icon in the tray aray, and click "Resident protection". The checkmark in front of it will go away and the icon will grey out, showing its passive, until you click it again.
