| (Not in registry) | The default value is set to 50 MB on Windows 2000 Professional and is unlimited on Windows 2000 Server. |
| 1 - 0xFFFFFFFE | Specifies the size of the Windows File Protection cache on the local hard drive. |
| 0xFFFFFFFF | The cache size is not limited. Save all cache all protected system files on the local hard drive. |
Note
This entry can be superceded by a policy included in Windows 2000. While the Limit Windows File Protection cache size policy is enabled and SfcQuota appears in the Policies subkey, the system ignores this entry. If Windows File Protection does not operate as expected, check to see whether a policy is in effect.
Tip
For detailed information about particular Group Policy settings, see the Group Policy Reference (Gp.chm) on the Windows 2000 Resource Kit companion CD.
