Regsitry Change - Enableballoontips

Hi,


Just trying to track down what is changing my registry on start-up.


Every time I restart windows 8.1 the registry entry


HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\EnableBalloonTips


gets set to 0 and I need it to be 1.


Is Bitdefender doing this by any chance?


Cheers,


TP

    Doubtful, it is set to 1 on both my Win 8.1 systems and doesn't change.

    I have tested this and Bitdefender is the cause.


    I did a total machine rebuild. Used the machine for about a week without Bitdefender installed and had no issue. As soon as I installed Bitdefender the problem appeared immediately.


    Can anyone suggest how I disable this? I use Balloon Tips a lot.


    Machine is running Windows 8.1 64-bit.


    Thanks in advance,


    Toby
