Broaden the removable media definition

Prev Next

Trellix FRP allows you to broaden the removable media definition to include USB drives and FireWire drives, or drives that report themselves as removable to the operating system. The removable media definition is broadened by adding a registry value on the client computer. In Trellix FRP, the value is configured by default to 1.

Task

  1. On the client system, create a DWORD registry value in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MfeEEFF called RelaxedRemovableMediaDefinition.
  2. Set the registry value as needed.
    • 0 — Default definition (same as not having this registry value)
    • 1 — Only disks reported as Removable or located on the USB or IEEE 1394 (FireWire) port
    • 2 — Only disks reported as Removable

    Restart the system to save the changes.
