What Is Remote Registry Service (RRS)
RRS was designed for businesses so an administrator can check/update the registry settings for employees over a network.

There are a few legitimate tools for businesses that use this service. But for home users, this is unnecessary and a security risk--you really don't want someone editing your registry over a network!


This affects Windows NT, 2000, and XP Pro (but not XP Home).


Bottom Line: Even if RRS is working exactly as designed, it is allowing access to your registry and that could be used to break your comptuter. It is recommended that you do disable RRS.
