Hi,
I can easily turn off System Protection via:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SystemRestore]
"RPSessionInterval"=dword:00000000

However, I also need to set its Disk Space Usage property to minimum (1%).
System Properties > Configure > Disk Space Usage
I couldn't find the key for Disk Space Usage, please help.
Thanks.

If you turn off System Restore, "disk space usage" setting is invalid anyway since all existing restore points are deleted and obviously no disk space will be used at all in future.

To set disk space usage for System Restore points, System Restore must first be turned on for the drive you wish to configure.

There is no need to mess with the Registry as all settings can be made in the System Restore dialog (provided System Restore is not turned off).
