Simpler Volume Control Window
When you open your Volume control window, then you will observe that there some options missing, and after you add them in the main panel, it becomes a lot bigger then your screen size. Especially if your resolution is 800 x 600, then in that case you can not see all the option, you need to scroll to see them all. Now to make it smaller and simpler, just press CTRL + S, and you will see a smaller, simpler volume control set.
If you are not able to see that after pressing that shortcut, then try running the following command in the Run window. Type sndvol32 /s this will open the volume control set, as you want it.
Enjoyiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To this what can be done is that the USB can be blocked and then stopping the use of USB drives. Here is a simple registry hack to do so, try it with care.
1. Go to Start –> Run, type Regedit.
2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlset\Services\USBStor
3. In the right pane, look for value Start and have value as 0000000(3)
4. Double click on that and change that value to 4.
You might be required to restart the PC, and then you are done with it, USB is now blocked.
In case if you want to get the USB unblocked, just change the value again to 3.See, its so easy. Isn’t it
