    1. Open Start Menu >> Run, type regedit and press Enter, this will open the registry editor.




    2. Navigate to the following path:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies

    Note: If the registry key StorageDevicePolicies key does not exist, you will need to create it
    Download this batch file called add.bat from here, and double click after download the key will be automatically added to registry.
