Restricting functionality in the Portal

The IGSS Portal has entries in the Windows registry that can be re-configured to remove certain functions from being used. The default string settings are set to 1 (except the first string), which enables the function. By changing the setting to 0, the function is disabled.

These Portal string settings are found in the key called HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\7-Technologies\IGSS32\V8.00.00\IgssPortal_HKLM as shown in the illustration below.
