So I don't think they are ever going to be able to remove the functionality completely.
I guess they could limit it to specific versions maybe
I would expect that the enterprise editions would not require this.

Im hoping that a simple regisrty patch from a USB can be run from command prompt instead should microsoft go this way.
Quote:Code:reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OOBE /v BypassNRO /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
shutdown /r /t 0
I will play around with that when I get a chance, going forward im afraid a registry hack might be our only way around this in the future.
