UTS Options Key in the Windows Registry

This table lists the string values and data that you can add to the UTS Options key in the Windows registry.

UTS automatically uses the default data for each of these values unless you add a value with different data to the UTS Options key. For example, by default, UTS operates as if AllEraseSetChanged is False unless you add this value to the Windows registry and set its data to True.

For true/false statements, the default values appear in bold in the following table. For all other statements, the default value is specified in the Function column.
