View Full Version : Registry Allow/Deny Window
Hello,
I just installed S&D and a window came up asking me if I wanted to allow or deny a registry change. However, the buttons didn't have any text on them so I didn't know which one to click. I closed the window and the got a pop-up stating that the change was denied. Two things; how do I fix it so the buttons actually show the appropriate text or which button is to allow & which is to deny the change? Any information would be helpful. Thanks!

There is currently a bug in TeaTimer 1.4. Portions of TeaTimer's popup dialog overlay the "Allow change" and "Deny change" buttons. On my system the very top edges of the "Allow change" button (on the left) and "Deny change" button (on the right) are showing and I am still able to select the options. I also can check "Remember this decision" since it is visible. If no portion of the "Allow change" and "Deny change" buttons are showing, you can answer TeaTimer's popup dialog (English language version) by pressing "A" on your keyboard for "Allow change" or "D" for "Deny change". Note: If you close the dialog without answering "Allow change" or "Deny change" the registry change is denied.
If you can't deal with the problem that way until it is fixed, you can:
Apply one of the workarounds found in the following pinned (Sticky) thread that fixes the pop-up dialog so the buttons are visible:

Disable TeaTimer as follows:
Go into Spybot > Mode > Advanced Mode > Tools > Resident.
Uncheck the following:Resident "TeaTimer" (Protection of over-all system settings) Active.
Thanks! I tried the fix suggested by ElPiedra and that did the trick!
Very helpful! :D
I tried 2 patches for the Accept/Deny button no-show but got error about "menu invalid"-------- have no clue what that's about-----can you help?
Can you tell i'm new at this? So you know, i did disable TeaTimer and I did try the ReShack thing but couldn't find exact "code" as described so i didn't make any changes there-----not confident with registry stuff.

Did you press Control-F,and search for the word decision,to find the code?I am unsure what you mean by registry stuff,could you please explain what you mean by that? :)
I forgot to post this:
md usa spybot fan has a post similar to the one above,but this one is a bit more updated,and has instructions included for the patches,which might help if you prefer to try one of the patches instead of doing the Reshacker fix.
