IMPORTANT: This article contains information about editing the registry. Before you edit the registry, make sure you understand how to restore it if a problem occurs. For information about how to do this, view the "Restoring the Registry" Help topic in Regedit.exe or the "Restoring a Registry Key" Help topic in Regedt32.exe.

SUMMARY
When you are running the Disk Management snap-in in Windows 2000, the Write Signature and Upgrade Disk Wizard runs if you have any unallocated basic disks available on the system. To prevent the wizard from starting every time you use the snap-in, you can either upgrade the disks or select the "Do not show this wizard again" check box. However, if you select this check box, the wizard never starts automatically again.

MORE INFORMATION
WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.

For information about how to edit the registry, view the "Changing Keys and Values" Help topic in Registry Editor (Regedit.exe) or the "Add and Delete Information in the Registry" and "Edit Registry Data" Help topics in Regedt32.exe. Note that you should back up the registry before you edit it. If you are running Windows NT, you should also update your Emergency Repair Disk (ERD).

To reactivate the wizard, locate the following registry value:

"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Logical Disk Manager\Dont Show InitWizard" The default data value for the Dont Show InitWizard value is 0. If you have selected the "Do not show this wizard again" check box, the data value becomes 0x1. To reactivate the wizard, change the data value back to 0. Additional query words: ldm veritas
